Description: Richard Hofstadter: Anti-Intellectualism in American Life, The Paranoid Style in American Politics, Uncollected Essays 1956-1965 (LOA #330) by Richard Hofstadter, Sean Wilentz Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description Together for the first time: two masterworks on the undercurrents of the American mind by one of our greatest historiansRichard Hofstadters Anti-Intellectualism in American Life and The Paranoid Style in American Politics are two essential works that lay bare the worrying trends of irrationalism, demagoguery, destructive populism, and conspiratorial thinking that have long influenced American politics and culture. Whether underground or--as in our present moment--out in the open, these currents of resentment, suspicion, and conspiratorial delusion received their authoritative treatment from Hofstadter, among the greatest of twentieth-century American historians, at a time when many public intellectuals and scholars did not take them seriously enough. These two masterworks are joined here by Sean Wilentzs selection of Hofstadters most trenchant uncollected writings of the postwar period: discussions of the Constitutions framers, the personality and legacy of FDR, higher education and its discontents, the relationship of fundamentalism to right-wing politics, and the advent of the modern conservative movement. Author Biography Richard Hofstadter (1916-1970) was the author of many classic and bestselling works of American history, among them Social Darwinism in American Thought (1944), The American Political Tradition: And the Men Who Made It (1948), The Age of Reform (1955), and America at 1750: A Social Portrait (1971). He spent most of his career teaching at Columbia University.
