Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: very good. First Edition. Octavos, clothbacked boards Edited with Commentary by Robert S. Baker and James Sexton. The first two volumes in a projected six-volume series.

1st edition. Fine title-blocked board copy in an equally fine dust-wrapper. Particularly and surprisingly well-preserved; tight, bright, clean and especially sharp-cornered. Physical description; ill.; 25 cm. Notes; Spine title: Aldous Huxley complete essays. Includes bibliographical references and indexes. Summary; These first two volumes of a projected five, in preparation for several years, begin a major publishing venture, collecting the complete essays of one of the giants of modern English prose and of social commentary in our time. The first two volumes span the most productive period of Huxley's career. Volume I begins with his essays for Gilbert Murray's Athenaeum and his music essays for the New Westminster Gazette. Volume II continues through the 1920s and includes his controversial essays on India and the empire in "Jesting Pilate." The essays of both volumes range from nuanced assessments of art and architecture to political analyses, history, science, religion, and art, and a newly discovered series on music. Wide-ranging, allusive, and witty, they are informed by the probing skepticism of a highly educated and ironically incisive member of the English upper middle class. Huxley's fascination with the codes and conventions of European culture, his growing apprehensions about the menacing collapse of the European political order, and his awareness of the impact of science and technology on the post-Versailles world of England, France, Germany, and the United States form the basis for his critique. His subjects overlap with the satirical novels he wrote during the period between the wars, culminating in Point Counter Point and Brave New World. At their best, these essays stand among the finest examples of the genre in modern literature. Subjects; Huxley, Aldous 1894-1963. Authors, English - 20th century. Dates covered: 1920-1925.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - This third volume of a projected six reinforces Huxley's stature as one of the most acute and informed observers of the social and ideological trends of the years between the world wars. It contains the important collection of essays 'Music at Night' as well as the majority of Huxley's journalistic writing for the Hearst newspapers in the United States and for a variety of British periodicals such as Nash's Pall Mall Magazine, the Evening Standard, and Time and Tide. Much of the attraction of the Hearst essays lies in their vivid period detail: references to the raucous voices of Nazi broadcasters, speeches by Roosevelt and Stalin, Soviet five-year plans, and the effects of the Great Depression combine to provide a rich context for Huxley's increasingly active role in organized pacifism and his sense of standing on the threshold of a new era. The essays of 'Music at Night' define this trend as 'the New Romanticism,' a celebration of Enlightenment modernity and an excessive faith in instrumental reason and applied science. Huxley was both intrigued by and suspicious of state planning and centralized bureaucratic authority. The essays in Volume III (and the volume to follow) register his growing ambivalence about the role of technocracy and science in an era of experimentation in the concentration of executive and legislative power. At their best, Huxley's essays stand among the finest examples of the genre in modern literature. 'He was among the few writers who.played with ideas so freely, so gaily, with such virtuosity, that the responsive reader.was dazzled and excited.'-Isaiah Berlin.…
