    Paul Johnson - Intellectuals 1988

    English / ISBN: 0060916575 / PDF / 400 pages / 7.70 Mb


    Conservative historian Paul Johnson wears his ideology proudly on his sleeve in this often ruthless dissection of the

    thinkers and artists who (in his view) have shaped modern Western culture, having replaced some 200 years ago "the old

    clerisy as the guides and mentors of mankind." Taking on the likes of Karl Marx, Bertrand Russell, Lillian Hellman, and

    Noam Chomsky in turn, Johnson examines one idol after another and finds them all to have feet of clay. In his account, for

    instance, Ernest Hemingway emerges as an artistic hero who labored endlessly to forge a literary style unmistakably his

    own, but also as a deeply flawed man whose concern for the perfect phrase did not carry over to a concern for the women

    who loved him. Gossipy and sharply opinionated, Johnson's essay in cultural history spares no one.
