Pressestimmen
“The book does provide a good sense of many of Susman’s concerns and virtues: his attentiveness to the ways in which Americans have used and abused their past, his ability to combine a deeply radical sensibility with an appreciation of the conservative tradition, and his fine grasp of the ambivalence with which Americans greeted modernity in the first half of the 20th-century.”—Robert Westbrook, professor of History, University of Rochester, from Reviews in American History
Kurzbeschreibung
With amazing creativity, clarity, and wit, Warren Susman (1927-1985) takes us on a provocative tour of the highlights of American culture. By looking at all types of 20th-century culture—highbrow, lowbrow, and middlebrow—Susman shows how culture itself has become a battleground for competing visions of American life. Fourteen essays include such topics as the nature of American conservatism, the cultural contradictions of a consumer society, and the role of the urban experience in the development of American culture.

Interesting social history from a much-missed scholar
17. April 2006
Format:Taschenbuch
I had the opportunity to study with Warren Susman in the early 1980s at Rutgers and the experience completely changed the way I look at history. Susman was an old-school scholar, given his place on the faculty based on his teaching and his ideas more than his publications (of which there are very few). This book covers most of Susman's major ideas, showing that history can be seen through culture as much as through politics. His piece on FDR and Mickey Mouse is probably his best-known and is included here. One of my most-cherished college memories is walking with Susman to class once, discussing movies. A great teacher who died much to soon.
