| Description: |
E. P. Thompson and English radicalism celebrates the fiftieth anniversary of The Making of the English Working Class, one of the most influential history books of the last fifty years, and demonstrates the present day relevance of Thomnpson's historical, political and polemical writing and peace campaigning. -- . |
| Synopsis: |
Available in paperback for the first time, E. P. Thompson and English radicalism gathers together a selection of leading authors from a diverse range of disciplines to critically review not only this pivotal work, but the wide range of his career, including his experience as an adult educator, writer, poet and critic. His involvement in the early New Left, his political theories, his socialist humanism and his concept of class are all interrogated fully. Thompson was also a notable and passionate political polemicist, peace campaigner and activist who saw all his public activity as complementary parts of a unified whole, and this collection aims to bring his ideas to the attention of a new generation of students, scholars and activists. -- . |
