My biggest takeaway from the Zinn Reader was that historic figures, particularly revolutionaries, should be understood in light of their revolutions and not through contemporary legal/social mores. Otherwise the omnibus is a leftist feel good diatribe. ( ) A collection of essays by the famed historian Howard Zinn. It is amazing how Zinn found himself embroiled in so many of the major historical events of his time. Insightful and well written, this collection of essays gives the reader an excellent frame of reference for many of the important events of our time. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse

No other radical historian has reached so many hearts and minds as Howard Zinn. It is rare that a historian of the Left has managed to retain as much credibility while refusing to let his academic mantle change his beautiful writing style from being anything but direct, forthright, and accessible. Whether his subject is war, race, politics, economic justice, or history itself, each of his works serves as a reminder that to embrace one's subjectivity can mean embracing one's humanity, that heart and mind can speak with one voice. Here, in six sections, is the historian's own choice of his shorter essays on some of the most critical problems facing America throughout its history, and today. No library descriptions found. |
