Product Description
A critical introduction to the writings of Irving Babbit, the New Humanist scholar and teacher of T.S. Eliot. "Panichas places Babbit where he belongs: at the core tradition in literary analysis--and does so without resorting to bile, guile, or clever ripostes at the expense of a giant".--Irving Louis Horowitz, author, "Foundations of Political Sociology".
From the Back Cover
"Panichas places Babbitt where he belongs: at the core tradition in literary analysis-and does so without resorting to bile, guile, or clever ripostes at the expense of a giant."-Irving Louis Horowitz, author, Foundations of Political Sociology "A penetrating study of the most influential humanist of the twentieth century." -W. Jackson Bate, Kingsley Porter University Professor, Harvard "Irving Babbitt was a formidable scholar and moralist who stood unflinchingly against the corrosive intellectual tides of his day. In this illuminating volume, Professor George Panichas convincingly establishes why, nearly seven decades after Babbitt's death, he remains a conservative sage, worthy of careful study and respect-the kind of respect and meditation Panichas himself here displays."-George H. Nash, author, The Conservative Intellectual Movement in America Since 1945 "This is the most authoritative and comprehensive exposition of Babbitt's thought and character to date. Panichas writes in a style consonant with Babbitt's own: direct, firm, rational, informed by devotion to standards and evaluation." -Stephen L. Tanner, Professor of English, Brigham Young University "Dr. Panichas is a historian of ideas, a cultural critic and a splendid writer. It is time to turn our attention once again to Irving Babbit and Dr. Panichas is an expert guide."-Jeffrey Hart, author, Political Writers of the Eighteenth Century
