Culture and Creativity by John Astley (English) Paperback Book
John Astley's Collected Essays seek to examine aspects of the sociology of culture - whether in music, design or literature, etc - and the core values transmitted (or not) by these various agencies. The overall focus of these thought-provoking essays is the sociology of culture, which - through many agencies, and often pervasively - affects all of our lives in ways that we might not realise. The essays include: "Design for Living" which discusses the lasting influences of William Morris, and "Soul of a Man Under Socialism" presents a triptych on the ideas of George Orwell, William Morris, and Oscar Wilde.and a bio-graphical sketch of the polymath Raymond Williams.
