Biographical History
Sir Isaiah Berlin (1909-97), philosopher and historian of ideas, was
born in Riga, Latvia, of Jewish parents. After spending his early years mainly
in Riga and in Petrograd (St Petersburg), Russia, he moved with his parents to
London in 1921. Thereafter he was educated at St Paul's School and at Corpus
Christi College, Oxford - thus beginning a lifelong association with the
University.
Between 1932 and 1938 Berlin was a Fellow of All Souls College, where
he studied philosophy and wrote a biography of Karl Marx (published in 1939).
In 1938 he moved to New College, where he remained until 1950 with the
exception of the war years: the period 1940-46 was spent in the United States.
There he worked for British Information Services in New York and Washington,
reporting on the state of US opinion on the war. After the end of the war, in
late 1945, he spent three months in Moscow and Leningrad on official business.
During this period he met the poets Anna Akhmatova and Boris Pasternak: his
conversations with Akhmatova in particular he considered one of the most
significant and moving experiences in his life.
In the years following his return to academic life after the war,
Berlin gradually created his own niche in the history of ideas, while also
developing original ideas in political thought: especially in the fields of
liberalism and pluralism. He returned to All Souls College in 1950, became
Chichele Professor of Social and Political Theory in 1957 and was knighted that
same year. From 1949 he regularly lectured in the United States, establishing
close links with many US academics and finding great intellectual stimulus from
those of them interested in the history of ideas - better represented in that
country than in Britain. In 1966 Berlin accepted the Presidency of Wolfson
College (initially known as Iffley College), and was instrumental in its
creation as a building and institution. He retired from the University in 1975
but had already become President of the British Academy, a position he retained
until 1978. During 'retirement' he continued to pursue his academic and social
interests, and was to see the publication of numerous uncollected and
unpublished writings through the efforts of his editor, Henry Hardy.
Berlin had numerous interests beyond his professional work. He was
involved in many aspects of Israeli political, cultural and academic affairs,
notably as a Governor of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, and was a
committed Zionist. He had a lifelong passion for music, and became a Director
of the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden. On both professional and social levels
Berlin maintained a hectic round of engagements, his capacity for brilliant
talk making him a guest eagerly sought after by countless friends and
acquaintances at home and abroad. Throughout his life he developed close
friendships with people from many walks of life, these relationships being
vividly illuminated in his extensive correspondence. In 1956 Berlin married
Aline Halban (née de Gunzbourg), thereafter enjoying many years of happily
married life.
