Produktinformationen zu „Aldous Huxley: Modern Satirical Novelist of Ideas “
The essays on Aldous Huxley collected here were written between 1966 and 2005 and have been
arranged by their author in such a way that they approximate a book on Huxley as a modern satirical
novelist of ideas. In this capacity, Huxley assessed the intellectual condition of his era, always
excoriating folly but never losing sight of human potentialities, especially his own. Huxley's ingrained
skepticism persisted into his later fictions, even after his conception of the nature of things improved.
The amused and highly amusing Pyrrhonic aesthete turned into a Swiftian Prospero. Detached yet
totally committed to bettering the human condition, Huxley epitomized the dedicated craftsman. This
lifelong aesthetician, always a philosopher, continues to command attention as thinker, critic, and artist:
both satirist and sage.
