Summary |
This classic study of Santayana was the first book to appear in the Arguments of the Philosophers series. Growing interest in the work of this important American philosopher has prompted a new edition of the book, complete with a foreword by Angus Kerr-Lawson and a new preface by the author reassessing his own ideas about Santayana and reflecting on contemporary interest in the philosopher's work. It also includes a select bibliography of works on Santayana published since the book's first appearance. |
