Description
For almost 50 years, Peter Stansky has devoted himself to studying the English world, and this volume brings together into an outstanding collection his selected essays and reviews -- some not previously published -- on English society and culture from the late 19th century through the 1960s. There are six parts to the book: Biography as History; William Morris; Bloomsbury; The 1930s and After; George Orwell; The Other. The Jew; and Sergeant Pepper. Throughout, Stansky discusses the tension between the forces of change and the forces of tradition, focusing especially on the nature of change and the interplay between radicalism and domesticity.
