From his declaration of anarchism in 1937 until his acceptance of a knighthood in 1953, Read contributed to Freedom and its precursors articles, book reviews, poems, and wrote three pamphlets. This volume collects them all, with someof his finest writing on anarchism, art, culture, and politics. Includes an excellent, lengthy, contextual introduction from David Goodway.

Sir Herbert Read (1893 1968) was a highly influential English critic and poet. Originally published in 1929, this volume gathers together nine of Read's essays, with each one covering a different author. The essays, all of which made their first appearance in The Times Literary Supplement, are centred around the concept of 'glory' and its manifestation in works of a particularly transcendent nature. Written in an engaging style, this book will be of value to anyone with an interest in literature and literary criticism."

Sir Herbert Read traces the development of modern sculpture from Rodin to the present day and brings order into the apparently chaotic proliferation of styles and techniques during this period.
