Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book argues against the notion that only elitist societies foster the greatest advancements in the arts and sciences. The author counters this view with historical evidence from a wide range of cultures to show that societies that promoted equality and republicanism have consistently produced significant cultural achievements. From the earliest origins of art and science to the architectural and artistic wonders of ancient Greece, the author traces the positive relationship between social equality and creative innovation. While acknowledging that certain hierarchical societies, such as ancient Egypt, also produced impressive works, the author maintains that these were largely the result of religious fervor rather than a broad-based social commitment to progress. Ultimately, the book challenges the idea that social inequality is necessary for cultural advancement and demonstrates that human creativity flourishes best in societies that prioritize the well-being of all their members. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.

"The advancement of civilization, by the cultivation of letters, science, and the arts, is to be held among the noblest objects of human exertion." Whitcomb (1792-1879) was a journalist and a champion of the working class, public schools and democratic political values. "He held several jobs and careers that included books, peddling, landowner, clerk, and journalist. It was his business of selling books' subscriptions that allowed him to travel the country extensively, giving him opportunities to purchase land at bargaining prices, gather a unique knowledge of the common US people, and to meet interesting and prominent people, including President Thomas Jefferson" (Wikipedia).
