While other men were talking of special arbitration commissions Dr. Hale was already demanding a permanent international tribunal, and forecasting with confidence and marvelous precision the program which has since been adopted by the Hague Conferences.

He describes how literature, painting, music, & the theater related to a public increasingly avid for them; how artists used, or were used by, publishers, plagiarists, impresarios, & managers; & how contemporary ideas of taste combined w/ patriotic fervor & shrewdly managed commerce to create a vibrant, dynamic national culture. * HIGHEST PRAISE: "A MAGNIFICENT achievement. . . . Enormous in its scope, ASTUTE in its choices of examples, LEARNED in its resources, but written w/ an almost unfailing lucidity & accessibility." -David A. Bell, New Republic "Every so often a work of intellectual history comes along that reinvigorates the common reader's interest in the past. . EXHILIRATING. . No one interested in modern intellectual history should miss it." -Michael Dirda, Washington Post Review "'The Pleasures of the Imagination', John Brewer's DELIGHTFUL & WEIGHTY study, seeks to demonstrate how English 'high culture' reinvented itself during this FASCINATING period (the 18th century) . IMMENSEY RICH & vividly and eloquently conveyed. -- Los Angeles Times Sunday Book Review, Olwen Hufton "In 'The Pleasures of the Imagination' John Brewer takes us on a grand tour of the exciting, fluid, often raucous world of the 18th-century arts. It is a long journey. Brewer cannot resist a racy anecdote, & obscure figures receive as much attention as do the stars of English culture. But perseverance is rewarded, for Brewer gives us a brilliantly illustrated social history of the many people who produced plays & paintings, music & books for a marketplace in which only a few experienced celebrity. He focuses not so much on the careers of the outstanding geniuses of the age as on the complex, frequently irascible cultural negotiations that actually defined a public culture. -NYTBR, T.H. Breen "It is a teeming world that he describes, but he keeps a good organizational grip on his material. He chooses his examples well; he moves easily over an expanse that is too often divided up among specialists. And he has a commendable taste for the pungent & the picturesque. Mr. Brewer strikes me as essentially an old-fashioned historian, w/ solid old-fashioned virtues. He has a story to tell, & he lets his conclusions emerge as he goes along." -The Wall Street Journal, John Gross * SHIPPING: MNEMOSYNE carefully wraps, labels & packages this fine book w/ our greatest elegance & care for FREE shipment via USPS MEDIA MAIL within the United States & its territories or via USPS PRIORITY MAIL for a below cost fee of $16.00 w/ shipping to all international destinations via USPS FIRST CLASS MAIL at our posted rates.
