Excessive level of personal information[edit]

I fail to see why this very peculiar sentence belongs in the article. Who contributed this information? Why does Dunn's personal life warrant inclusion at all?

Dunn has been married four times: to Susan Deborah Fyvel (1965; marriage dissolved 1971); to Judy Pace (1973; marriage dissolved 1987); to Ruth Scurr (1997; marriage dissolved 2013); and to Anastasia Piliavsky (2014—).

Verification of middle name?[edit]

Can we verify the proper spelling of John Dunn's middle name - Is it Mountfort or Montfort? Thanks KConWiki (talk) 16:15, 2 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I have various online sources that say Montfort, so I am changing it in the article -

Any problems, let's discuss. KConWiki (talk) 16:19, 2 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Is James Dunn of this entry, the academic, and the author of these books (Traditionalism: the Only Radicalism, Child of Encounter: The Death and Resurrection of the Self , Renaissance: Counter-Renaissance: The Revolt Against Jehovian Terror) the same person? Could someone verify this, please?
