Seller: Swan's Fine Books (United States)

Description: New York: International Publishers, 1947. Hardcover. Fine/Good+. Octavo size, 346 pp. Per Wikipedia, "Christopher Caudwell was the pseudonym of Christopher St John Sprigg (20 October 1907 – 13 February 1937), a British Marxist writer, literary critic, intellectual and activist..published The Crisis of Physics in 1936... According to Marxist historian Helena Sheehan, Caudwell became interested in Marxism in 1934 and began to study it with "extraordinary intensity". In the summer of 1935, he wrote [Illusion and Reality] his first Marxist book...According to the socialist magazine Monthly Review, Caudwell on 12 February 1937 "was killed by fascists in the valley of Jarama during the Spanish Civil War. He died at a machine gun post, guarding the retreat of his comrades in the British Battalion of the International Brigade. The Marxist historian E. P. Thompson wrote of Caudwell, "It is not difficult to see Caudwell as a phenomenon – as an extraordinary shooting-star crossing England’s empirical night – as a premonitory sign of a more sophisticated Marxism whose true annunciation was delayed until the Sixties.... The Marxist academic John Bellamy Foster similarly credited Caudwell with 'breathtaking intellectual achievements in a brief period of time'." From the jacket flap, "Far more than merely 'a study in the sources of poetry,' this book presents a whole rounded philosophy of art…[the book] begins with a study of the origins of the arts in primitive tribal life. It then discusses the development of English Poetry from Shakespeare to modern times…It goes on to study the language of poetry, the difference between art and science, and the role of both art and science in everyday life. Finally, it presents a detailed analysis of modern man’s consciousness of the world…reflected in modern art, new psychological theories, and the physics of Einstein and Planck." ___DESCRIPTION: Bound in navy blue cloth over boards, silver lettering stamped on spine, with a seven-page graph on pp. 117-122; octavo size (8 5/8" x 5 1/2"), pagination: [i-iv] [1-3] 4-342.
