American Rebels
Editat de Jack Newfielden Limba Engleză Paperback – 4 ian 2004
American
Rebels
is
an
anthology
of
specially
commissioned
essays
by
leading
American
writers
that
attempt
to
reconcile
authentic
patriotism
with
original
artistic
creation,
unpopular
opinion,
and
real
moral
principles
that
don't
change
with
the
winds.
It
includes
rebels
in
politics,
education,
journalism,
religion,
literature,
film,
sports,
music,
law,
popular
culture,
and
social
struggle.
These
are
real
rebels
against
conformity,
commercialism,
racism,
oligarchy,
the
bogus
conventional
wisdom,
stacked
decks,
and
sacred
cows.
The
Americans
celebrated
don't
fit
under
any
one
ideology
or
party.
They
are
too
free-spirited
to
be
categorized,
belonging
to
a
continuum
of
conviction
and
creation
in
our
tangled
national
history.
Some,
like
Walt
Whitman,
Bob
Dylan,
Marlon
Brando,
and
Frank
Sinatra,
are
famous.
Others
are
less
well
known
but
have
earned
a
broad
appreciation;
among
them
are
Sam
Fuller,
Paul
O'Dwyer,
and
Mike
Harrington.
Still
others
like
Edward
Abbey,
Benjamin
Mays,
and
Bill
Hicks
are
almost
cult
figures—revered
by
a
small,
intense
following.
Others
have
faded
from
memory,
like
Margaret
Sanger
and
Clarence
Darrow,
and
deserve
a
new
shaft
of
sunlight.
This
groundbreaking
collection
includes
original
essays
by
Pete
Hamill,
Stanley
Crouch,
Budd
Schulberg,
Danny
Goldberg,
J.
Hoberman,
Patricia
Bosworth,
Tom
Hayden,
Steve
Earle,
and
others.
