Item description from seller

Hardcover. 8 3/4" X 5 3/4". 543pp; xiv, 612pp. Both volumes bound in dark navy cloth over boards, with spines lettered in gilt. Mild shelfwear to bindings, with faint wear to cloth boards. Binding are firm, tight, and sound. Pages are clean and unmarked. A very smart set, complete in two volumes, of this English translation of this critical political treatise by Hungarian statesman Baron József Eötvös (1813-1871), part of the series Eastern European Monographs No. CDLXIII & CDLXIV and Atlantic Studies on Society in Change No. 87 & 88. ABOUT THIS SET: This is the first English translation of a classic of nineteenth-century European liberal political thought. Its thesis is that since the French Revolution, the dominant ideas of liberty, equality and nationality, have been given a meaning quite different from liberal interpretations. Liberty, for instance, has been taken to mean that all power is nominally exercized by 'the people' ; this difference, according to Eotvos, is the cause of all the sufferings of the age. This work constitutes a devastating, prescient commentary on the twentieth century, and has been apotent influence in post-communist Hungary. The translator has supplied precise reference for Eotovos's quotations, a substantial introduction, and an index with short notes on proper names. (Publisher).

Description de la boutique

Underground Books, ABAA is an online rare and antiquarian bookshop, founded in 2011 as a brick and mortar general bookstore of the same name in downtown Carrollton, Georgia, which is now operated by out former store manager as The Underground Bookshop. Co-owners Josh Niesse and Megan Bell met in 2011, just 10 days or so after Josh opened the doors of Underground Books, literally underground, several steps below street level in a 100-year-old basement in our historic downtown. Megan, an English student at the University of West Georgia, walked in, fell down the rabbit hole, and never left! Reader, we married in May of 2014, under the book arch that now resides at the bookshop. We are both proud alumni of the Colorado Antiquarian Book Seminar (CABS), and Megan additionally of Rare Book School at the University of Virginia and of the ABAA Women’s Initiative Mentorship Program. Like many booksellers with open brick-and-mortar stores, we are passionate generalists, but our specialties are in decorative publisher's cloth bindings; fairy tales, folklore, and mythology; popular science and natural history; the occult; and fine press books.
