Anthem

Autor Ayn Rand
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 dec 2010
From The Author of "ATLAS SHRUGGED" and "THE FOUNTAINHEAD" Anthem is a dystopian fiction novella by Ayn Rand, first published in 1937 in England. It takes place at some unspecified future date when mankind has entered another dark age as a result of the evils of irrationality and collectivism and the weaknesses of socialistic thinking and economics. Technological advancement is now carefully planned (when it is allowed to occur at all) and the concept of individuality has been eliminated (for example, the word "I" has disappeared from the language). As is common in her work, Rand draws a clear distinction between the "socialist/communal" values of equality and brotherhood and the "productive/capitalist" values of achievement and individuality. This Special Collector's Edition contains both the unedited and annotated versions of the Ayn Rand's book, with notes and observations for study, and a Foreward by Ayn Rand. REVIEWS: "A compelling dystopian look at paranoia from one of the most unique and perceptive writers of our time" - New York Times "A diamond in the rough, often dwarfed by the superstar company it keeps with the author's more popular work, but every bit as gripping, daring and powerful." - Publisher's Weekly "Ayn Rand was more of a prophet than many people once realized." - Alan Greenspan

Textul de pe ultima copertă

Hailed by" The" "New York Times "as "a compelling dystopian look at paranoia from one of the most unique and perceptive writers of our time," this brief, captivating novel offers a cautionary tale. The story unfolds within a society in which all traces of individualism have been eliminated from every aspect of life use of the word "I" is a capital offense. The hero, a rebel who discovers that man's greatest moral duty is the pursuit of his own happiness, embodies the values the author embraced in her personal philosophy of objectivism: reason, ethics, volition, and individualism.
"Anthem" anticipates the themes Ayn Rand explored in her later masterpieces, "The Fountainhead" and "Atlas Shrugged. Publisher's Weekly" acclaimed it as "a diamond in the rough, often dwarfed by the superstar company it keeps with the author's more popular work, but every bit as gripping, daring, and powerful."
Dover (2013) republication of the edition published by Pamphleteers, Inc., Los Angeles, 1946.

Notă biografică

Ayan Rand was an American author and philosopher who was born in Russia. She is renowned for both her literature and the Objectivism philosophical framework she created. Before migrating to the US in 1926, she had her education and upbringing in Russia. Before becoming popular with The Fountainhead in 1943, she wrote and published two early, unsuccessful novels, two Broadway plays, and two books. The publication of Rand's best-known book, Atlas Shrugged, in 1957. Thereafter, up until her death in 1982, she published her own publications and released a number of collections of essays in order to promote her ideology. Rand promoted reason as the only method of learning; she disapproved of faith and religion. She opposed altruism and favored logical, moral egoism. In politics, she opposed collectivism, statism, and anarchism and criticized the use of force as unethical. She advocated for laissez-faire capitalism, which she characterized as the framework that respects individual rights, including those related to private property. Rand was opposed to libertarianism, which she saw as an anarchist, although she is frequently linked to the contemporary libertarian movement in the US. Rand supported romantic realism in art. There have been nearly 37 million sales of Rand's novels.

Recenzii

"Rand's dark portrait of the future was first released in England in 1938 and reedited for publication in the United States in 1946. This 50th-anniversary edition includes a scholarly introduction and a facsimile of the original British version, which bears Rand's handwritten alterations for its American debut."—Library Journal

"In her usage of the English language she combines clarity of expression with prose of poetic grace. Here, indeed, is an anthem-an anthem, not in the idiom of music, but in the more difficult medium of words alone. This is the most beautiful, the most inspiring novel this reviewer has ever read. It is an ethical and philosophical rather than a religious dedication to freedom and the individual."—Joan DeArmond, Fact Forum News

"Reading this inspired little story is a rewarding and satisfying experience which no American should deny himself."—All-American Books
