New Reformation: Notes of a Neolithic Conservative
New Reformation was Paul Goodman's last book of social criticism. The man who set the agenda for the Youth Movement of the Sixties with his best-selling Growing Up Absurd, and who wrote a book a year to keep his crazy young allies focused on the issues as he saw them, stepped back in 1970 to re-assess the results of what he considered a moral and spiritual upheaval comparable to the Protestant Reformation-the breakdown of belief, and the emergence of new belief, in sciences and professions, education, and civil legitimacy.Michael Fisher's introduction situates Goodman in his era and traces the development of his characteristic insights, now t…

Über den Autor
Paul Goodman, known in his day as the philosopher of the New Left, set the agenda for the youth movement of the 1960s with his bestselling Growing Up Absurd. He produced new books every year throughout that turbulent decade, while lecturing to hundreds of audiences on the nation's campuses, covering subjects that ranged from movement politics to education and community planning, from psychotherapy and religion to literature and media. At the same time, a continuous stream of poems, plays, and fiction prompted composer and diarist Ned Rorem to say, In a society increasingly specialized, he shone as a Renaissance artist. America's most celebrated public intellectual at the time of his death in 1972, his work still resonates for our own times of national crisis.
