Recenzii

"For students of American literature, for contemporary Agrarians, for historians of American ideas, and for all those who believe that a 'third way economics' deserves new attention in our raucous social-economic times, this is the equivalent to a musicologist's discovery of a long-lost symphony by Mozart or Brahms. John Crowe Ransom's 1932 essay Land! is insightful American history, at once splendidly old and remarkably fresh." —Allan C. Carlson, editor, The Family in America

"We owe Jay Collier and Jason Peters a debt of gratitude for a splendid edition of Land!, John Crowe Ransom's Depression-era treatise on political economy. A wide range of Americans who find modernity at cross-purposes with traditional values hear the reverberations still. I'll Take My Stand retains the power to 'wake us up,' and the audacity of the Southern Agrarians' project is evident in Ransom's economic sequel with its call to withdraw from the capitalist economy, to go forward by moving backward." —Paul V. Murphy, Grand Valley State University

"The question Ransom poses in Land! is as fundamental as it is perennial: how should people find their place in an economic order productive of the health and flourishing of the land and all its inhabitants? In proposing an agrarian solution, Ransom invites a rethinking of the bases of a sound and resilient culture. Far from being solely of historical interest, this text from the margins of mainstream economic thinking offers a fresh opportunity to reimagine the forms of our life together." —Norman Wirzba, Duke University Divinity School

"John Crowe Ransom’s Land!, an idiosyncratic view of American economics in the early twentieth century, which has been intelligently edited by Jason Peters, adds a rich and considerable dimension to Agrarianism. Mr. Ransom’s highly original argument unfolds in beautifully written prose as he presents the various forms of modern economic practices ranging from capitalism in Britain and the United States to socialism in Europe. Serious students of Ransom’s work will want to read this engaging and thought-provoking book." —George Core, retired editor of The Sewanee Review
