Heresies And Heretics
“The Lost Literature of Socialism Take Back the Past: Myths of the Twentieth Century The Story of the Novel The English Ideology for Ruth Abbott Heresies and Heretics Memories of the Twentieth Century by George Watson Preface It was seldom easy to be a heretic in Britain in the twentieth century, and even harder to persist in it.

The V...ictorians had bequeathed ideologies, with an intelligentsia which moved from one limited consensus to another at high speed. The late nineteenth century was the first age, so to speak, in which intellectuals changed their minds again and again. The twentieth century inherited that alarming tradition.
