内容简介
Matthew Arnold`s Cultrue and Anarchy,first published in 1869,is one of the most celebrated works of social criticism ever written.It has become an inescapable reference-point for all subsequent discussion of the relations between politics and culture,and it has exercised a profound influence both on conceptions and teaching of this much-revised work, and places it alongside Arnold`s three most important essys on political subjects - Democracy ,Equality,and The Function of Criticism at the Present Time .The editor`s substantial introduction situates these works in the
context both of Arnold`s life and other writings ,and ofnineteenth-century intellectual and political history .In order to make Arnold`s work accessible to
students,this edition also contains a chronology of Aronld`s life,a bibliographical guide and full notes on the names ,books and historical events mentioned in the
texts.
