American Cultural Critics (Exeter Studies in American & Commonwealth Arts) (Exeter Studies in American and Commonwealth Arts Spie Procee) [Paperback] David Murray

American Cultural Critics covers a wide range of twentieth century intellectuals and cultural commentators whose work has constituted an engagement with American society and its values. These specially commissioned essays examine the central themes of American postwar intellectual history and explore the complex ways in which the underlying terms of cultural criticism have been both shared and contested. Contributors include Michael Wood, Richard King, Helen Carr and Lawrence J. Friedman.
