AUTHOR

Berlin, Isaiah

SUMMARY

The masterly essay on Tolstoy's view of history, in which Sir Isaiah underlines a fundamental distinction between those people (foxes) who are fascinated by the infinite variety of things and those (hedgehogs) who relate everything to a central, all-embracing system. This little book is so entertaining, as well as acute, that the reader hardly notices that it is learned too. --Arnold ToynbeeBerlin, Isaiah is the author of 'Hedgehog and the Fox: An Essay on Tolstoy's View of History' with ISBN 9780671606015 and ISBN 0671606018.
