Born in Chicago, Illinois, Moore was educated at Yale University, where he received an A.B. in 1926 and a Ph.D. in 1932, then taught philosophy for three years. In 1936 he began his 30-year career at the University of Hawaii, where he founded the East-West Philosophers' Conferences, directing the first four in 1939, 1949, 1959, and 1964. In 1951 he also founded a journal, ''Philosophy East and West'', and served as its editor until his death.〔"In memory of a great scholar and teacher who devoted his life to further mutual understanding and appreciation between philosophers of the east and the west," ''Philosophy East and West,'' vol. 17, no. 1 (January 1967), p. 5〕 In 1947 he received fellowships from the Guggenheim Foundation and the Watumull Foundation to do a year of postdoctoral work at Banaras Hindu University. He chaired the section on philosophy and religion at the Unesco Conference in 1957, chaired the plenary session of the International Congress of Philosophy in Mexico City in 1963, and taught at various times as a visiting professor at Boston University, Cornell University, Duke University, and the University of Southern California. In 1967 Visva-Bharati University awarded him a D.Litt., and in 1969 the University of Hawaii named a new building Moore Hall.〔 ==See also== *American philosophy *List of American philosophers 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Charles A.
