New York Public Intellectuals and Beyond: Exploring Liberal Humanism, Jewish Identity, and the American Protest Tradition - Shofar Supplements in Jewish Studies
Shows how a small New York group, predominantly Jewish, moved from communist and socialist roots to become a primary voice of liberal humanism and, in the case of a few, to launch a new conservative movement. This book concentrates on Lionel Trilling as the paradigmatic liberal intellectual and also includes reconsiderations of Irving Howe.
