A longshoreman who acquired some serious insights into the condition of working class America in the 1960's. If you wish to deal with most North Americans Hoffer's works are the starting place. His book here is a set of essays about the concerns of Americans down to the present day (April of 2019). Studs Terkel is a light weight compared to Hoffer, and if they did not come to blows, or even if they did, the two men were the faces of the real America, and Canada. Deeply missed, Eric. And, everyone should read this book. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
Eric Hoffer--one of America's most important thinkers and the author of The True Believer--lived for years as a Depression Era migratory worker. Self-taught, his appetite for knowledge--history, science, mankind--formed the basis of his insight to human nature. The Temper of Our Time examines the influence of the juvenile mentality, the rise of automation, the black revolution, the regression of the back-to-nature movement, the intellectual vs. learning, and other relevent issues.
