Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Mencken's work offers a critical lens on American society, blending journalism, satire, and cultural critique. His sharp observations on literature, music, and politics, particularly during the Scopes Trial, highlight his wit and insight. As a scholar, he significantly contributed to the understanding of American English through his multi-volume study, The American Language. Influenced by Nietzsche, Mencken fiercely opposed organized religion and populism, advocating for a more elitist view of governance and society.
