Will Durant

Will Durant (1885-1981) was awarded the Pulitzer Prize (1968) and the Presidential Medal of Freedom (1977). He spent more than fifty years writing his critically acclaimed eleven-volume series, The Story of Civilization (the later volumes written in conjunction with his wife, Ariel). A champion of human rights issues, such as the brotherhood of man and social reform, long before such issues were popular, Durant's writing still educates and entertains readers around the world.

Personality Profile For Will Durant

The following is a personality profile of Will Durant based on his work.

Will Durant is shrewd, somewhat insensitive and tranquil.

He is unstructured, he does not make a lot of time for organization in his daily life. He is empathetic as well: he feels what others feel and is compassionate towards them. But, Will Durant is also philosophical: he is open to and intrigued by new ideas and loves to explore them.

More than most people, his choices are driven by a desire for well-being.

He is relatively unconcerned with both tradition and taking pleasure in life. He cares more about making his own path than following what others have done. And he prefers activities with a purpose greater than just personal enjoyment.
