Recenzii
The outcome of a three-decade intellectual dialogue with Tocqueville, Roger Boesche's new book offers a penetrating and engaging analysis of various aspects of the work and personality of Tocqueville. A pleasure to read, Tocqueville's Road Map offers an excellent opportunity to renew our own dialogue with the ideas of the Frenchman who has become the unsurpassable horizon of our times.
This compilation of essays is rich in detail without losing sight of the grandeur of Tocqueville's vision. Tocqueville, so easy to quote, yet so hard to fully understand, is treated here with subtlety and grace. The nuanced picture that emerges in Mr. Boesche's hands reminds us that Tocqueville remains for us the most sophisticated and important political theorist of the 19th century, whose capacity to shed light on 21st century problems is astounding....
This balanced collection of articles by one of the leading Tocqueville scholars is most welcome. . . . The author provides a thoughtful, perhaps more ambiguous view of Tocqueville than other scholars. His view is both incisive and compelling. Highly recommended.
Through his wide-ranging work as an author, editor, and translator, Roger Boesche has achieved recognition as one of the finest Tocqueville scholars of his generation. This volume performs a signal service by bringing together more than two decades worth of outstanding Tocqueville studies by this clear-sighted, humane, and historically informed analyst.
