Decadence: Henry Sidgwick Memorial Lecture

Viac o knihe

In this influential lecture delivered at Cambridge University in 1895, philosopher and statesman Arthur J. Balfour offers a scathing critique of the cultural and moral decay of fin-de-siècle Britain. With its nuanced analysis of the forces behind social and intellectual decline, Decadence remains a must-read for scholars of Victorian and Edwardian cultural history.
