Aggiungi al carrelloHardcover. Condizione: Very good. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very good. Presumed First Edition, First printing. xii, 262, [4] pages. DJ is in a plastic sleeve. Introduction by Kurt Vonnegut, Jr. Editor's Foreword. Contents include Discovering the Underground, How Far Should We Go?, The Student as Nigger, Mobilization: Gettin' the… Students Together, Student Power, Black Power for the Black Students, Educational Reform, Youth Culture: The Rock Revolution, and Postscript: And It's Just the Beginning. John Birmingham, the editor of "Our Time is Now," is a witty, engaging guide through the high school underground from the vantage point of his own involvement as editor not only of the official student newspaper "VOICE" but also of the underground paper "Smuff" at Hackensack, N. J., High School. He traces the career of "Smuff" and presents a good sample of underground writing from high schools across the country. Kurt Vonnegut (November 11, 1922 - April 11, 2007) was an American writer and humorist known for his satirical and darkly humorous novels. In a career spanning over 50 years, he published fourteen novels, three short-story collections, five plays, and five nonfiction works; further collections have been published after his death. In addition, his short pieces, such as his Introduction to Our Time is Now, often have been overlooked and under-explored for there insights into both his creative genius and the social conditions and topics reflected in the works he agreed to introduce. Kurt Vonnegut Jr., in his introduction to "Our Time is Now," quotes a friend who went to high school with him in Indianapolis: "When you get to be our age, you all of a sudden realize that you are being ruled by people you went to high school with. You all of a sudden catch on that life is nothing but high school.class officers, cheerleaders, and all." Vonnegut agrees, adding, "High school is closer to the core of American experience than anything else I can think of.Richard Nixon is a familiar type from high school. So is Melvin Laird. So is everybody." Radicalized not by reading Marx but by looking at their own situation. Todd Ash [First symbol] (illustratore).

Aggiungi al carrelloAn interesting letter casting light on the Victorian provincial press. Scott's entry in the Oxford DNB states that, while he was living in Birmingham, 'H. J. Palmer offered him a staff appointment on the Birmingham Gazette; but he had to leave when he stipulated that, as a Liberal, he should write nothing in support of the Conse…rvative cause. He was working again as a freelance when, in 1887, he was invited by W. T. Stead to join him on the Pall Mall Gazette. He worked for six years on that paper under Stead and then Edward T. Cook.' 4pp, 12mo. On bifolium. In fair condition, lightly aged. Folded once for postage. The final page is smudged, including the signature, which clearly reads 'J. W. Robertson-Scott', with a hyphen. Begins: 'My dear Walters. / I heard a few days ago in a prominent B'ham politician's family that the Gazette was going into Radical hands! - of course the Rad. Unions was [mentioned?]. Are you able to put two and one together yet, to the manufacturing of an aquaferous (this word is original & patented) theory as to B[irmingha]. D[aily]. G[azette]. future? If you haven't, I have but a poor opinion of you.' He continues with reference to 'H. J. P.', i.e. H. J. Palmer (see above), The Times, plagiarism, Macaulay, Charles Blount, Milton's Areopagitica and the Biographia Britannica'. Postscript begins: 'The whole matter is pretty well settled if one knew whether H. J. P. was sacked or not.'.

Sir Charles Dilke 'says that Oct. 13 is fixed for Halifax, and that he is not sure that he may not be able to go there after all'. If this is so, 'it would be best to change my day at Newport from the 13th. October'. He will tell '', a…nd would be grateful to Schnadhorst for arranging another day.
