Dialogue: A Journal of Mormon Thought

by Virginia Sorensen (Contributor), Bruce W. Jorgensen (Contributor), Richard Sherlock (Contributor)

Dialogue is an independent quarterly established to express Mormon culture and to examine the relevance of religion to secular life. It is edited by Latter-day Saints who wish to bring their faith into dialogue with the larger stream of Judeo-Christian thought and with human experience as a whole and to foster artistic and scholarly achievement based on their cultural heritage. The journal encourages a variety of viewpoints; although every effort is made to ensure accurate scholarship and responsible judgment, the views expressed are those of the individual authors and are not necessarily those of the Mormon Church or of the editors. Dialogue welcomes articles, essays, poetry, fiction, notes and art.

About the author

Virginia Louise Sorensen (February 17, 1912-1991) was an American writer. Her role in Utah and Mormon literature places her within the "lost generation" of Mormon writers. She was awarded the 1957 Newbery Medal for her children's novel, Miracles on Maple Hill.

Sorensen was born in Provo, Utah in 1912, and it was her family's own stories that influenced her early novels of the American West.
