Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. "Randolph Bourne" by Louis Filler, combines biography and critical analysis, as the author presents a study of one of the key literary figures of the early twentieth century. Randolph Bourne was not just a literary figure, he was also a trenchant social thinker, and pacifist - speak…ing out against World War I, and decrying Anglo-Saxon centrist attitudes in the United States. He championed immigration, in that he felt the United States would be stronger if it and celebrated immigrant cultures and embraced multi-culturalism - although I do not think that phrase was in current use back then; one essay of his was titled "Trans-National America". His writings were influential, and continue to have a positive influence on progressive thinkers. Here is the cover blurb: " 'Randolph Bourne' is a study of the man who became the intellectual leader of protest against American intervention in World War I — America's Romain Rolland and Bertrand Russell — The man who, in Carl Van Doren's words , 'said peace and meant peace'. To his friend Van Wyck Brooks, the writer-philosopher was the 'flying wedge of the younger generation' of pre World War I America. He was the brilliant spokesman of those idealistic poets, artists and moralists who experimented in art and life, and aspired toward a non-conformist civilization richer and healthier than the America they knew. TITLE : Randolph Bourne AUTHOR : Louis Filler . [Louis Filler, was Professor of American Civilization at Antioch College, and the author of numerous books.] INTRODUCTION : Max Lerner IMPRINT : Citadel Press PLACE : New York DATE : (1966) EDITION : First Paperback Edition STATUS : OP — Out of Print PHYSICAL DETAILS : Trade paperback; Contains an Introduction, References, a Bibliographic Note, and an Index; [x] + 158 pages; approximately 5 3/8" x 8"; printed wraps, glued.
