Leo Strauss is known to many people as a thinker of the right, who inspired hawkish views on national security and perhaps advocated war without limits. Moving beyond gossip and innuendo about Strauss's followers and the Bush administration, this book provides the first comprehensive analysis of Strauss's writings on political violence, considering also what he taught in the classroom on this subject. In stark contrast to popular perception, Strauss emerges as a man of peace, favorably disposed to international law and skeptical of imperialism - a critic of radical ideologies who warns of the dangers to free thought and civil society when intellectuals ally themselves with movements that advocate violence. Robert Howse provides new readings of Strauss's confrontation with fascist/Nazi jurist Carl Schmitt, his debate with Alexandre Kojève about philosophy and tyranny, and his works on Machiavelli and Thucydides and examines Strauss's lectures on Kant's Perpetual Peace and Grotius's Rights of War and Peace.

Understanding James Leo Herlihy

Understanding James Leo Herlihy is the first book-length study of one of America's most neglected post-war writers. Herlihy (1927-1993), an occasional actor, made his professional mark in life as a playwright and novelist. Herlihy's body of work includes numerous plays, two collections of short stories, and three novels. His best-known novel, Midnight Cowboy, was later adapted into a screenplay by John Schlesinger. It was the only X-rated movie to receive an Academy Award--three, in fact, in 1969: best picture, best director, and best adapted screenplay. In Understanding James Leo Herlihy, Robert Ward examines Herlihy's writing with reference to its historical, cultural, and personal contexts. Ward portrays Herlihy as a product of his environment, influenced by the 1950s and 1960s culture, including the youth rebellion, the erosion of the traditional family, and the increasing sexual liberation. Herlihy's award-winning novels, plays, and short stories display persistent themes of displacement, alienation, and the loss of innocence--all themes that Ward views as parallel to Herlihy's personal life. Through a biographical introduction and a detailed discussion of the major novels, plays, and short stories, Ward details the writer's successful works.
Der Paedagoge Leo Weismantel Und Seine «Schule Der Volkschaft» (1928-1936)
Die vorliegende erziehungs- und bildungshistoriographische Arbeit beschaftigt sich mit den allgemeinen padagogischen und schulreformerischen Ideen, die zu Beginn dieses Jahrhunderts aufbrachen und den rivalisierenden Bewegungen innerhalb einer sich neu orientierenden und konstituierenden Volks- respektive Erwachsenenbildung. Dabei konzentriert sie sich auf den Padagogen Leo Weismantel und sein mit ihm untrennbar verbundenes erziehungswissenschaftliches Forschungsinstitut, die "Schule der Volkschaft." Dargestellt und untersucht werden Weismantels Personlichkeit und Padagogik, insbesondere seine "Schule der Volkschaft." Ihre Theorie, ihr Entstehen, ihre Arbeit und ihre Akzeptanz werden in einer breit angelegten Quellenforschung herausgearbeitet. Dabei wird zugleich die Entwicklung des padagogischen Impetus Weismantels und die konsequente Verfolgung der von ihm propagierten, von bleibender Aktualitat gekennzeichneten Ziele offengelegt."
