About this product
Product Information
InThe Public Intellectualism of Ralph Waldo Emerson and W.E.B. Du Bois, Ryan Schneider shows how and why two of America's most influential public intellectuals-writing from opposite sides of the color line-defined race not only in biological and geo-cultural terms but also as an emotional phenomenon. Drawing on and advancing recent work in Cognitive Literary Studies, Critical Race Theory, and the History of Emotions, Schneider comparatively examines the range of feelings Emerson and Du Bois attribute to the experience of racial difference; his innovative close readings reveal the surprising extent to which they conceive of race reform as an emotive process and how expressions of personal feeling underwrite their public commitments to re-imagining black-white relations.

Reviews
"Both Emersonians and Du Boisians will be deeply engaged by Schneider's innovative arguments about the understudied interconnections between these two figures. Schneider's analysis of emotion and intellector more precisely, how affect interfaces with cognitionemerges organically out of his close readings of the work of each thinker, and he demonstrates, often to arresting effect, the centrality of feeling in their reform writings. This accessible, penetrating study will appeal to people in a variety of fieldsliterature, history, philosophy, sociology, and American Studiesand is a must-read for anyone interested in questions of race, affect and cognition, and social reform."--Dana Nelson, Gertrude Conaway Vanderbilt Professor of English and American Studies, Vanderbilt University and author of The Word in Black and White and National Manhood "By viewing the intertwined emotional and intellectual development of Emerson and Du Bois through the lens of 'double consciousness,' Schneider opens up striking new ways to understand the connections between these major figures, each one arguably the most important reform-minded public intellectual of his day."--Eric J. Sundquist, Foundation Professor of Literature, UCLA "A carefully researched, inventive, and compelling study of two towering figures in American intellectual history. Rather than opt for a conventional charting of 'influence,' or diachronic trend lines, Schneider takes the more fruitful path of selective concentrated analysis of comparable experiences, interests, and motions of the mind in order to dramatize a complex mix of affinities and discrepancies across the color line. Especially revealing is his demonstration of the intertwinement of emotion and intellect to the public intellectual work of these two notoriously cerebral thinkers."--Lawrence Buell, Harvard University and author of Emerson, "Both Emersonians and Du Boisians will be deeply engaged by Schneider's innovative arguments about the understudied interconnections between these two figures.

WOW! The condition is incredible for the price I paid - I thank the seller for accepting my offer as I'm poor and need all the help I can get in obtaining the more expensive otogizoshi & other medieval & ancient Japanese Literature that I'm looking for, so this seller really was generous with the price and I thank them from the bottom of my heart. Packaged super safe, really fast shipping, and the book is like new, so much better than the Ad's description! HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS SELLER FOR SURE!!
