In their distinctive ways, she argues, they exemplify what Burke two centuries ago and Trilling most recently have called the \"moral imagination.\" Himmelfarb describes how each of these thinkers, coming from different traditions, responding to different concerns, and writing in different genres, shared a moral passion that permeated their work. It is this passion that makes their reflections--on politics and literature, religion and society, marriage and sex--sometimes unpredictable, often controversial, always exciting, and as illuminating and pertinent today as they were then. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe second edition includes a revised introduction and three new essays on Adam Smith, Lord Acton, and Alfred Marshall. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Gertrude Himmelfarb\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Rowman \u0026amp; Littlefield Publishers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/30\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 330\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.1lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.97h x 6.06w x 1.26d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781442218291\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e2nd Edition\u003c\/b\u003e","brand":"Rowman \u0026 Littlefield Publishers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42711362568329,"sku":"9781442218291","price":52.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/9240\/6921\/files\/img_f13fa627-848c-44c6-9157-390f09912636.jpg?v=1719567968","url":"https:\/\/sonsanddaughtersbooks.com\/products\/the-moral-imagination-from-adam-smith-to-lionel-trilling-9781442218291","provider":"Sons and Daughters Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
