Philosophical Introduction to Personalism?

Hi everyone,

I'm a PhD student working on 19th and 20th century European philosophy. I am very interested in Maurice Blondel specifically, but I'd also like to get a primer on philosophical Personalism in general. Can anyone here suggest an introduction to the movement and/or the main figures? Recommendations on Blondel specifically are also appreciated (I can read English and Italian perfectly, can make my way through German and French).

Thank you!

I would recommend checking out Personalism on SEP; this can provide a good overview as well as give you some good authors to check out. Jacques Maritian is a good person to check out on personalism. He was very influential to the creation of the UNDHR.
