AUTHOR
SUMMARY
"Denby's courage pays off: His thick description of what learning and teaching the great books actually means to us today puts to shame the facile speculation that has heretofore dominated culture-wars journalism. When Denby puts himself on the line as a student and as a person by actually READING the classics, his audacious humility amounts to a kind of greatness of soul. In important ways, this is one of the very few truly GOOD books on the culture wars.Denby, David is the author of 'Great Books My Adventures With Homer, Rousseau, Woolf, and Other Indestructible Writers of the Western World', published 1997 under ISBN 9780684835334 and ISBN 0684835339.
