Book Description: Mps 3pl, 2003. Paperback. Book Condition: New. Reprint. 208 x 141 mm. Brand New Book with Free Worldwide Delivery ***** Print on Demand *****. At each step of this journey through American cultural history, Louis Menand has an original point to make: he explains the real significance of William James's nervous breakdown, and of the anti-Semitism in T. S. Eliot's writing. He reveals the reasons for the remarkable commercial successes of William Shawn's "New Yorker" and William Paley's CBS. He uncovers the connection between Larry Flynt's "Hustler" and Jerry Falwell's evangelism, between the atom bomb and the Scholastic Aptitude Test. He locates the importance of Richard Wright, Norman Mailer, Pauline Kael, Christopher Lasch, and "Rolling Stone" magazine. And he lends an ear to Al Gore in the White House as the Starr Report is finally presented to the public. Like his critically acclaimed bestseller, "The Metaphysical Club, American Studies" is intellectual and cultural history at its best: game and detached, with a strong curiosity about the political underpinnings of ideas and about the reasons successful ideas insinuate themselves into the culture at large. From one of our leading thinkers and critics, known both for his "sly wit and reportorial high-jinks [and] clarity and rigor" ("The Nation"), these essays are incisive, surprising, and impossible to put down.
