Hardcover. Condizione: Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: Fine. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. Signed. 496 pages. Published in 1996. The author's book-length account on subject. David Denby's finest achievement. The First Hardcover Edition. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions, of which there are many.… Published in a small and limited first print run as a hardcover original only. The First Edition is now scarce. Presents David Denby's "Great Books: My Adventures With Homer, Rousseau, Woolf, And Other Indestructible Writers of The Western World". Brilliant Living Author re-enrolls in Columbia University's "core curriculum" course. In preserving the notion of the Western Canon, it has been an unlikely focus of America's ideological "culture wars". "Celebrates his re-discovery and new appreciation of such authors as Homer, Plato, the Biblical writers, Augustine, Boccaccio, Hegel, Austen, Marx, Nietzsche, and Virginia Woolf. Where other universities caved and revised or enlarged the canon, Columbia's course has remained intact. Denby's intention as a writer and protagonist is to record the experience and personal impact of the course" (Publisher's blurb). "Does a Great Books Canon exist? This superb book suggests an answer. Denby, the film critic of New Yorker Magazine, returned to his alma mater after 30 years to re-take the courses, grapple with the world's classics, and regenerate his own lapsed reading habit. It is a heartening portrait of American education, and a substantial, enthralling read. The book's richest moments are when the mature Denby engages with the texts. Reading the tragedy of 'Oedipus Rex', he feels anxious, recognizing the uncomfortable, ironic truth: 'What we avoid, we become' " (Publishers Weekly). Among other mainstream, non-academic writers, only Michael Dirda comes to mind as unapologetically - therefore controversially - committed to the Western tradition at a time when it is under relentless assault from mind-less ideologues. It is easy to miss the real "lesson" of David Denby's nostalgic project: Serious reading is a lifelong engagement with books, with the Great Books. In the end, one pursues learning auto-didactically; being self-taught is unavoidable, not just ideal or necessary. An absolute "must-have" title for David Denby collectors. This copy is very prominently, neatly, and beautifully signed, dated (very shortly after publication), and inscribed in black ink-pen on the title page by the author: "To Beth - Part of an obviously brilliant family. Best, David Denby September 20, 1996". It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page. David Denby's handwriting is unusually elegant and beautiful. This title is a contemporary classic. As far as we know, this is the only such signed, publication-month dated, and inscribed copy of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing available online and despite its imperfection (one bump on lower back board corner) is still in fine condition overall: Every single internal page is clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: Copies available online have very serious flaws or are in multiple subsequent printings. This is surely an accessible alternative. A rare signed copy thus. One of the most brilliant writers of our time. A fine copy. ISBN 0684809753. Signed by Author.
