ISBN: 9780742521742 / Angielski / Twarda / 2006 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In this remarkable work, Roger Lundin seeks the source of American moral and cultural authority in the shift from nature to experience figured in the thought of Ralph Waldo Emerson.

This is a story of nineteenth-century sources and twenty-first century consequences in which literature, history, philosophy, and theology are joined in order to form a truly original critique of American culture.
