"In The American Intellectual Tradition, 4/e, Hollinger and Capper have critically considered a 'family of disagreements' in American social and political thought. The result is yet another probing volume of sources that illustrates links between ideas, culture, and major trends in American society. Selections from the work of Richard Rorty, Lillian Smith, Randolph Bourne, Sarah Grimke, and others set the stage for continuing debate about the dynamic and static nature of American social and intellectual life. The authors judiciously suggest other voices who come to different conclusions about the questions considered."--William Banks, University of California, Berkeley"This sourcebook continues to serve as the cornerstone of my teaching in American thought for undergraduates and graduate students alike. The American Intellectual Tradition provides a comprehensive survey ranging from the Puritan theology to postmodern critical theory. The fourth edition includes updated versions of Hollinger and Capper's superb critical commentaries and comprehensive bibliographies, essays as valuable for specialists trying to keep track of new work in cultural history as for students seeking guidance as they embark on the historical study of ideas."--James T.

Reseña del editor:
The American Intellectual Tradition has long been the only documents reader available in American Intellectual History. Organized chronologically from the 1630 Massachusetts Bay Colony to the present, and with clear introductions and headnotes, the 2-volume set makes writings of many prominent American thinkers accessible to today's college students. This fourth edition represents the most thorough revisions of the book to date. A total of twenty-one new documents are included, covering such areas as theology, cultural thought, psychology, and race-class-gender theory as these subjects appeared in the major discourses of their time. Also, many of the introductions have been substantially rewritten, while all headnotes and recommended reading lists have been completely updated. The American Intellectual Tradition is invaluable for courses in American Intellectual History, and can also be used profitably as a supplement for classes in American History, American Studies, and American Literature. In Volume II, new selections by the following authors are included: Frederick Jackson Turner, Woodrow Wilson, H.L. Mencken, Sidney Hook, David Lilienthal, Hannah Arendt, Erik H. Erikson, C. Wright Mills, W.W. Rostow, Ralph Ellison, Noam Chomsky, and Nancy Chodorow.
