Book
Trade paperback. Condition: Good. Sentry Edition 3, Later printing. xxiv, 517, [3] pages. Introduction by D. W. Brogan. Editor's Preface by Henry Cabot Lodge. Index. Rear cover creased. Henry Brooks Adams (February 16, 1838 - March 27, 1918) was an American historian and a member of the Adams political family, descended from two U.S. presidents. As a young Harvard graduate, he served as secretary to his father, Charles Francis Adams, Abraham Lincoln's ambassador to the United Kingdom. The posting influenced the younger man through the experience of wartime diplomacy, and absorption in English culture, especially the works of John Stuart Mill. After the American Civil War, he became a political journalist who entertained America's foremost intellectuals at his homes in Washington and Boston. During his lifetime, he was best known for The History of the United States of America 1801-1817, a nine-volume work, praised for its literary style, command of the documentary evidence, and deep (family) knowledge of the period and its major figures. In 1870, Adams was appointed professor of medieval history at Harvard, a position he held until his early retirement in 1877 at 39.[3] As an academic historian, Adams is considered to have been the first (in 1874-1876) to conduct historical seminar work in the United States. Among his students was Henry Cabot Lodge, who worked closely with Adams as a graduate student. During the late 1860s and early 1870s, Adams edited, with the assistance of his brother Charles Francis Adams, the major American intellectual-literary journal, The North American Review. Adams was elected a Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 1875. The Education of Henry Adams is an autobiography that records the struggle of Bostonian Henry Adams (1838-1918), in his later years, to come to terms with the dawning 20th century, so different from the world of his youth. It is also a sharp critique of 19th-century educational theory and practice. In 1907, Adams began privately circulating copies of a limited edition printed at his own expense. Commercial publication of the book had to await its author's 1918 death, whereupon it won the 1919 Pulitzer Prize. The Modern Library placed it first in a list of the top 100 English-language nonfiction books of the 20th century. The Education is more a record of Adams's introspection and his observations than of his deeds. It is an extended meditation on the social, technological, political, and intellectual changes that occurred over Adams's lifetime. Adams concluded that his traditional education failed to help him come to terms with these rapid changes, hence, his need for self-education. The organizing thread of the book is how the "proper" schooling and other aspects of his youth was time wasted, thus, his search for self-education through experiences, friendships, and reading. Henry Adams' life story is rooted in the American political aristocracy that emerged from the American Revolution. He was the grandson of the American President John Quincy Adams and great-grandson of President and founding father John Adams. His father, Charles Francis Adams, had served as ambassador to the United Kingdom during the Civil War, and had been elected to the United States House of Representatives. His brothers Brooks Adams and Charles Francis Adams Jr. were also historians of note. Henry Adams had received the finest formal education available in the United States, enjoying many other advantages, as well. This social context makes The Education so important, but the trappings of success did not mean much to a restless individualist such as Adams. Rather than take advantage of his patrician name, he sized up this and other advantages and found them wanting. The Education is an important work of American literary nonfiction. It provides a penetrating glimpse into the intellectual and political life of the late 19th century.

Paperback. Condition: Good. 520 pages. Name on ffep.Autobiographical account of Henry Ada ms, a descendant of the well-known Boston family, who became a fa mous historian of the nineteenth century Editorial Reviews Revi ew Autobiographical work by Henry Adams that was privately printe d in 1906 and published in 1918. Considered to be one of the most distinguished examples of the genre, the Education combines auto biography, bildungsroman, and critical evaluation of an age. Its chapter entitled The Dynamo and the Virgin contrasts the Virgin M ary, the unifying force acting on the European Middle Ages, with the dynamo, as representative of the forces of technology and ind ustry acting upon civilization in the early 20th century. Adams m arks the destruction of the human values that supported the achie vements of his forebears and fears a future age driven by corrupt ion and greed. -- The Merriam-Webster Encyclopedia of Literature </div.
