Synopsis

In "Addresses in America, 1919," John Galsworthy presents a compelling collection of speeches and lectures that reflect not only his literary prowess but also the socio-political climate of post-World War I America. Galsworthy employs a keenly observant and articulate style, merging narrative grace with a persuasive rhetorical approach. This work transcends mere documentation; it delves into themes of democracy, social justice, and the human condition, resonating with the burgeoning modernist movements of the early 20th century. His reflections serve as a poignant commentary on the shifting landscape of American society amid profound global change. John Galsworthy, an eminent British author known for his insights into social issues, was moved by the aftermath of the Great War and the evolving American ethos. His experiences traveling through a transformative America in the wake of the conflict, along with his own inquiries into the societal challenges of his time, spurred him to confront pressing issues through the lens of his sharp intellect and humane sensibility. Galsworthy's literary background, including the creation of the Forsyte Saga, underlines his ability to engage readers in thoughtful discourse. This work is essential for those seeking a nuanced understanding of early 20th-century America and its challenges. Galsworthy's eloquence and insightful observations encourage readers to reflect on the relevance of his messages today. Whether one is a student of literature, history, or sociology, "Addresses in America, 1919" promises to enrich your perspective and provoke thoughtful dialogue.

    Imagination: A Very Short Introduction explores imagination as a cognitive power and an essential dimension of human flourishing, demonstrating how imagination plays multiple roles in human cognition and shapes humanity in profound ways. Examining philosophical, evolutionary, and literary perspectives on imagination, the author shows how this facility, while potentially distorting, both frees us from immediate reality and enriches our sense of it, making possible our experience of a meaningful world. Long regarded by philosophers as an elusive and mysterious capacity of the human mind, imagination has been the subject of extraordinary ambivalence, described as both dangerous and divine, as merely peripheral to rationality and as essential to all thinking. Drawing on philosophy, aesthetics, literary and cognitive theory, as well as the human sciences, this book engages the dramatic conceptual history of imagination together with contemporary explanations of its role in cognition to explain its importance in everyday life as well as the exquisite creativity of the arts, scientific discovery, and invention. Engaging examples from cave paintings to modern painting, performance art to pop art, physics to phenomenology, technological inventions to literary worlds, the Nazca geoglyphs to dramatic theater, poetry, and jazz improvisation, the author illuminates with clarity and vision the philosophy of imagination and the stakes of its involvement in human thinking.
