ISBN: 9781412805261 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 196 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Across America today, conservatism is being hotly debated both across the political spectrum and within the conservative movement itself. Much of the public debate is without definition or historical context.

Metapolitics: From Wagner and the German Romantics to Hitler
ISBN: 9780765805102 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 622 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. More than half a century after the fall of the Third Reich, Nazism, its roots and its essential nature, remain a central and unresolved enigma of the twentieth century. During the period of Hitler's ascendancy, most attempts at explaining this unprecedented phenomenon were framed in "economic," often Marxist, sociological terms and concepts. Peter Viereck's Metapolitics, initially published in 1941, broke with this convention by indicting Hitler in terms of the Judaic-Christian ethical tradition and locating certain elements of the Nazi worldview in German romantic poetry, music, and social...

Transplantings: Essays on Great German Poets with Translations
ISBN: 9780765803948 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. On being told that -translation is an impossible thing, - Anatole France replied: -precisely, my friend; the recognition of that truth is a necessary preliminary to success in art.- The task of Transplantings is to add flesh and bones to that familiar quip. Indeed, Daniel Weissbort notes that Viereck's study represented a sixty-five year long project. Now, it is finally being brought to print in its full form, with the completion of the final manuscript shortly before Viereck's death. If translation is a special genre in its own right, the translation of poetry, especially...

Unadjusted Man in the Age of Overadjustment: Where History and Literature Intersect
ISBN: 9780765808066 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 400 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The great critic Peter Viereck, in a volume that both reproduces an earlier effort and presents an entirely new work on the intersection of history and literature, offers a biting critique of the American desire for normalcy that leads to a culture of the surrender of personality. In contrast to this voluntary thought control process is the unadjusted person. Cast in the mold of great individualists from Thomas More to Friedrich Nietzsche, such a person responds to fundamental values of conscience rather than conformity built exclusively on ego gratification and icon worship. Viereck's...

Shame and Glory of the Intellectuals
ISBN: 9781138532519 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 351 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In this classic volume, written at the height of the Cold War, with a new preface of 2006, Peter Viereck, one of the foremost intellectual spokesmen of modern conservatism, examines the differing responses of American and European intellectuals to the twin threats of Nazism and Soviet communism. In so doing, he seeks to formulate a humanistic conservatism with which to counter the danger of totalitarian thought in the areas of politics, ethics, and art. The glory of the intellectuals was the firm moral stance they took against Nazism at a time when appeasement was the preferred path of many...

Conservatism Revisited: The Revolt Against Ideology
ISBN: 9780765805768 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 214 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Peter Viereck, poet and historian, is one of the principle theoreticians of conservatism in modern American political thought. In this classic work, Viereck undertakes a penetrating and unorthodox analysis of that quintessential conservative, Prince Metternich, and offers evidence that cultural and political conservatism may perhaps be best adapted to sustain a free and reasonable society. According to Viereck's definition, conservatism is not the enemy of economic reform or social progress, nor is it the oppressive instrument of the privileged few. Although conservatism has been...

Strict Wildness: Discoveries in Poetry and History
ISBN: 9780765802941 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 276 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. A reviewer once called Peter Viereck's thought -not common sense but inspired, electric common sense.- This volume of Viereck's selected essays on poetry and on history, written between 1938 through 2004, exemplifies this quality. Its main theme is suggested in Viereck's coined phrase -strict wildness, - which suggests a balance between restraint (which by itself is staid and rigid) and passion (which by itself is incoherent). Frost called free verse tennis without the net. Viereck calls dead mechanical form -net without the tennis.- Strict wildness, then, is spontaneity of feeling within...
