The Lost History of Western Civilization

Descrição do Produto

• “The Lost History of Western Civilization is a badly-needed correction to our historical understanding of the West. This report points the way toward restoring a proper appreciation of the Western tradition, and rightful pride in it.” — Mark Bauerlein, Senior Editor, First Things
• "The Lost History of Western Civilization offers a way back from our errors, toward a more conscious reappropriation of a rich and complex heritage that is the source of so much that we prize about our way of life—including even our penchant for self-examination and self-criticism. That heritage remains the shared ground on which we stand. We need to recognize it as such, and own the fact.” — Wilfred McClay, G.T. and Libby Blankenship Chair in the History of Liberty, The University of Oklahoma
• “Stanley Kurtz revitalizes the study of Western Civilization as a valid foundation for understanding the world we live in.” — Daniel Walker Howe, Rhodes Professor Emeritus of American History, Oxford University
• “Stanley Kurtz has written a report that could well serve as a script for a documentary drama. In hunting for the Lost History of Western Civilization, our guide leads us, step by step, through the arcane corridors of higher education into a diseased world of activist professors, narcissistic students, and feckless administrators, promoters not of knowledge, but of nihilistic nescience and benumbing groupthink. The situation imperils the very survival of a free society." — Robert Paquette, AHI
