A critical edition of a classic work by the renowned philosopher George Santayana evaluating key movements in American intellectual history.A critical edition of a classic work by the renowned philosopher George Santayana evaluating key movements in American intellectual history.Winds of Doctrine presents six essays by the internationally recognized critic and philosopher George Santayana. The essays, edited by David E. Spiech, Martin A. Coleman, and Faedra Lazar Weiss, and introduced by Paul Forster, address the broad sweep of intellectual trends-or, as the title suggests, the ever-changing winds of thought-of the Spanish-born American thinker's time. The topics range from the secularization of American culture to the rise of religious modernism to the "genteel tradition" in American philosophy, the subject of Santayana's final lecture in America and perhaps his best known essay.The original Winds of Doctrine, published in 1913, was the first book published after Santayana's 1912 departure for Europe. Santayana had felt stifled at Harvard for some time, and his long-contemplated resignation from academia released him from previous obligations and allowed him a new freedom to think and write. Much later, Santayana remarked on the significance of that choice to step away: "In Winds of Doctrine and my subsequent books, a reader of my earlier writings may notice a certain change of climate. . . .

"In a few hundred pages Santayana endeavors to sum up the dominant intellectual currents of early twentieth-century thought and trace their implications for American culture, for ethics and religion, for arts and letters, and for philosophy"-- Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
