Über diesen Titel

Reseña del editor:

This vintage book contains George Santayana’s 1899 play, "Lucifer: A Theological Tragedy". It is a blank verse drama within which Santayana seems to align himself with the other Harvard poets whose work was dominated by myth. It is a book that will appeal to those with an interest in thought-provoking poetry, and one that is not to be missed by fans and collectors of Santayana’s work. George Santayana (1863 - 1952) was an influential philosopher, essayist, poet, and novelist. He was brought up in the United States and called himself an American, although he always made sure that he had a valid Spanish passport. This antiquarian book was first published in 1806, and is being republished now in an affordable, modern edition. It comes complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.

Biografía del autor:

George Santayana (1863-1952) was a professor of philosophy at Harvard University. Expressing a theme that remained a lifelong characteristic, he explains why he gave up "academic lumber" and went into retirement. The pursuit of pure philosophy became his revolt against intellectual dissolution and anarchy. His writings were substantial, including a five-volume work, The Life of Reason, and a four-volume work, Realms of Being.
