Description - The Sense Of Reality by Isaiah Berlin

This collection at last makes available an important body of previously unknown work by one of our leading historians of ideas, and one of the finest essayists writing in English.

Eight of the nine pieces in The Sense of Reality are published here for the first time. The range is characteristically wide- realism in history; judgement in politics; the special right of philosophers to self-expression; the history of socialism; the nature and impact of Marxism; the radical cultural revolution instigated by romanticism; the Russian notion of artistic commitment; the origins and practice of nationalism. The title essay, starting from the impossibility of recreating a bygone epoch, provides a superb centrepiece.
