- Summary
- "Raymond Williams (1922-1988) was among the most influential and original left-wing thinkers in Britain since World War II. His field of interest was vast, and included adult education, politics, studies in mass communications, and cultural and literary criticism, as well as original fiction and drama. The specially-commissioned essays collected in this volume aim to reflect the full range of these interests and concentrate not only on the exposition and evaluation of Raymond Williams's ideas, but also on the way they have influenced teachers, writers and other thinkers."
