Cambridge, Cambridge University Press, 1993. XXXIV, 248 pages. Original softcover. Excellent condition with only very minor signs of external wear. Cambridge texts in the history of political thought.

Matthew Arnold’s Culture and Anarchy (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 of the distinctive nature of British society, and on ideas about education and the teaching of literature more generally. This edition establishes the authoritative text of this much-revised work, and places it alongside Arnold’s three most important essays on political subjects – Democracy, Equality, and The Function of Criticism at the Present Time.
