| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc. | "Civilization in the United States: An Inquiry by Thirty Americans" by Harold E. Stearns is a collection of critical essays written in the early 20th century. This work represents the collaborative effort of a group of American intellectuals who aimed to analyze and discuss the multifaceted aspects of modern American civilization through their unique perspectives. The book assesses significant themes such as the disconnection between ideals and practices in American life, the distinct cultural identity that goes beyond Anglo-Saxon roots, and the deep emotional and aesthetic hunger present in society. The opening of the work establishes the premise for a comprehensive inquiry into American civilization. The editor, Harold Stearns, emphasizes the collaborative nature of the project, having gathered thirty contributors to share their insights on various topics related to American society. The preface introduces the organizing principles behind the collection, such as the objective of avoiding irrelevant criticism and the commitment to being candid in their evaluations. Stearns expresses a belief that addressing the dichotomy between ideals and actual practices is essential for understanding the nation's cultural shortcomings, while also acknowledging the creative potential of America as it navigates its evolving identity.
