This 2008 book explores Friedrich Nietzsche's understanding ofmodern political culture and his position in the history of modernpolitical thought. Surveying Nietzsche's entire intellectual careerfrom his years as a student in Bonn and Leipzig during the 1860s tohis genealogical project of the 1880s, Christian Emden contributesto a historically informed discussion of Nietzsche's response tothe political predicaments of modernity, and sheds new light on theintellectual and political culture in Germany as the ideals of theEnlightenment gave way to the demands of the modern nation state.This is a distinguished addition to the series of Ideas in Context,and a major reassessment of a philosopher and aphorist whosestature among post-enlightenment European thinkers is now almostunrivalled.
Henry David Thoreau was just a few days short of histwenty-eighth birthday when he built a cabin on the shore of WaldenPond and began one of the most famous experiments in living inAmerican history. Apparently, he did not originally intend to writea book about his life at the pond, but nine years later, in Augustof 1854, Houghton Mifflin's predecessor, Ticknor and Fields,published Walden;or, a Life in the Woods. At the time the book waslargely ignored, and it took five years to sell out the firstprinting of two thousand copies. It was not until 1862, the year ofThoreau's death, that the book was brought back into print. Sincethen it has never been out of print. Published in hundreds ofeditions and translated into virtually every modern language,it hasbecome one of the most widely read and influential books everwritten, not only in this country but throughout the world. On the one hundred and fiftiethanniversary of the original publication of Walden, Houghton Mifflinis proud to present the most bea
This book opens the debate about German history in the longterm – about how ideas and political forms are traceable acrosswhat historians have taken to be the sharp breaks of Germanhistory. Smith argues that current historiography has become evermore focused on the twentieth century, and on twentieth-centuryexplanations for the catastrophes at the center of German history.Against conventional wisdom, he considers continuities – nation andnationalism, religion and religious exclusion, racism and violence– that are the center of the German historical experience and thathave long histories. Smith explores these deep continuities innovel ways, emphasizing their importance, while arguing thatGermany was not on a special path to destruction. The result is aseries of innovative reflections on the crystallization ofnationalist ideology, on patterns of anti-Semitism, and on how thenineteenth-century vocabulary of race structured thetwentieth-century genocidal imagination.
The Great Task Remaining is a striking, often poignant portraitof people balancing their own values—rather than ours—to determinewhether the horrors attending Mr. Lincoln’s war were worth bearingin order to achieve his ultimate goals. As 1863 unfolds, we see theuseless bloodbath at Fredericksburg, the disaster atChancellorsville, the battle--of Gettysburg, and the end of thesiege of Vicksburg. Then,Astonishingly, the Confederacy springsvigorously back to lifeAfter the Union triumphs of the summer,setting the stage for Lincoln’s now famous speech on thePennsylvania battlefield.Without abandoning the underlying sympathyfor Lincoln, Marvel makes a convincing argument for the GettysburgAddress as being less of a paean to liberty than an appeal to staythe course in the face of rampant antiwar sentiment. The Great TaskRemaining offers a provocative history--of a dramatic year—a yearthat saw victory and defeat, doubt And riot—as well as a compellingstory of a people who clung to the promise of a much-lo

Like all of V. S. Naipaul’s “travel” books, The Masque ofAfrica encompasses a much larger narrative and purpose: tojudge the effects of belief (in indigenous animisms, the foreignreligions of Christianity and Islam, the cults of leaders andmythical history) upon the progress of civilization. From V. S. Naipaul: “For my travel books I travel on a theme. Andthe theme of The Masque of Africa is African belief. I beginin Uganda, at the center of the continent, do Ghana and Nigeria,the Ivory Coast and Gabon, and end at the bottom of the continent,in South Africa. My theme is belief, not political or economicallife; and yet at the bottom of the continent the politicalrealities are so overwhelming that they have to be taken intoaccount. “Perhaps an unspoken aspect of my inquiry was the possibility ofthe subversion of old Africa by the ways of the outside world. Thetheme held until I got to the South, when the clash of the two waysof thinking and believing became far too one-sided. The skyscrapersof J
