Açıklama
"Humanism and America" by Norman Foerster is an edited collection of essays written in the early 20th century. It argues for a disciplined, classical humanism as a corrective to modern scepticism, scientism, and cultural disarray, especially in the United States. The volume surveys ethics, religion, literature, the arts, and education through contributions from leading critics and scholars.
The opening of the collection presents a preface that diagnoses a modern “headache” of noise, disillusion, and naturism, and proposes humanism—defined by clear standards and a firm distinction between man, nature, and the divine—as a restorative discipline. The editor situates American humanism chiefly in the work of Irving Babbitt and Paul Elmer More, rebuts charges that humanists are academic, un-American, reactionary, or puritanical, and sets the book’s aim: to clarify terms, restore standards, and address contemporary life across the arts and public discourse. The first essay, by Louis Trenchar
