This issue inaugurates a new regular column, The Back Page, by our contributing editor David Hart. I have long admired the remarkable range of his learning, his perfectly balanced Ciceronian sentences, and his sometimes mordant and always sharp wit. It will be great to have his voice in First Things every month.
As you read this, our end-of-the-year fundraising campaign will be in full swing. Our print subscribers get a letter. But we do not have mailing addresses for those of you who read us on the website, Kindle, and iPad. So please go to firstthings.com and click on the donate button. We need the support of all our readers to maintain the influence and quality of First Things.
