GR-3 A book meant not to teach the reader hard facts about English history, but to tell him how Chesterton interprets these facts (which he presumes the reader already knows). Quite readable, and typically for GKC as interested in common people as in those in power. The weak point is his adulatory approach to the medieval church; his perception of guilds as predecessors of socialist trade unions, rather than of capitalist cartels, is somewhat lacking in credibility as well. La mayoría de los libros de historia se escriben para corregir otros libros de historia. La breve historia de Inglaterra no es una excepción. Concéntrico a fuerza de excentricidad, irónico por convencido, paradójico por aparentemente extemporáneo, Chesterton quiso escribir una historia popular en la que lo fundamental radicara no tanto en los acontecimientos en sí como en la importancia que estos hubieran tenido. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
History.

HTML: England's rise to prominence on the world stage over the course of thousands of years is a tumultuous tale that includes equal parts triumph and tragedy.

Chesterton. .Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
