New York Intellect
A History of Intellectual Life in New York City from 1750 to the Beginnings of Our Own Time
Paperback Engels 1988 9780801836398Samenvatting
New York Intellect is Thomas Bender's remarkable look at the connections between the life of a city and the life of the mind. New York has never been comfortable or convenient as a milieu for art and intellect, Bender notes. Yet New Yorkers have always struggled to create institutions and styles of thought and writing that reflect the special character of the city, its boundless energies and deep divisions.
