Aldous Huxley: Modern Satirical Novelist of Ideas (Human Potentialities. Studien zu Aldous Huxley & zeitgenossischer Kultur)

Jerome Meckier

4.9/5 (9211 ratings)

Description:The essays on Aldous Huxley collected here were written between 1966 and 2005 and have been arranged in such a way that they approximate a book on Huxley as a modern satirical novelist of ideas. In this capacity, Huxley assessed the intellectual condition of his era, always excoriating folly but never losing sight of human potentialities, especially his own. Huxley's ingrained skepticism persisted into his later fictions, even after his conception of the nature of things improved. The amused and highly amusing Pyrrhonic aesthete turned into a Swiftian Prospero. Detached yet totally committed to bettering the human condition, Huxley epitomized the dedicated craftsman. This lifelong aesthetician, always a philosopher, continues to command attention as thinker, critic, and artist: both satirist and sage. (Series: "Human Potentialities." Studien zu Aldous Huxley & zeitgenossischer Kultur/Studies in Aldous Huxley & Contemporary Culture - Vol. 8)Edited by Peter E. Firchow and Bernfried Nugel; with an introduction by Peter Edgerly Firchow and a personal memoir by Gavin Keulks.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
