Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. For Henry Adams at the turn of the twentieth century, as for his successors in the twenty-first, the relation of mind to a world remade by technology and geopolitical conflict largely determined the destiny of civil life. ""Henry Adams and the Need to Know"" presents fourteen essays that ar…ticulate Adams' ongoing preoccupation with knowledge, stressing his eclecticism and his need to clarify the role of critical intelligence in public life. Adams' work appeals to a wide spectrum of historical and literary inquiry and claims a place in multiple scholarly contexts. The topics covered in this volume range from international politics (of Adams' age and ours) to portraiture, from orientalism and travel literature to the disintegration of the human mind. Here, leading scholars explore often-overlooked details of Adams' relationships with people and ideas. They reopen settled topics and reframe truisms. Each essay affirms, in one way or another, that to study Adams is to discover his continuing and astonishing relevance. Presents fourteen essays that articulate Adams' preoccupation with knowledge, stressing his eclecticism and his need to clarify the role of critical intelligence in public life. The topics covered range from international politics to portraiture, from orientalism and travel literature to the disintegration of the human mind. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
