Manning Clark was senior lecturer at the University of Melbourne, and later, Professor of History in the School of General Studies, Australian National University. In 1972 he became the first Professor of Australian History. In June 1975 Clark was made a Companion of the Order of Australia, in recognition of his writing of the monumental A History of Australia. He was named Australian of the Year for 1980. Professor Clark died in May 1991. He has remained in the news, particularly since, in 1996, a major Australian newspaper published an article claiming he had received the Order of Lenin.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Selected speeches by Manning Clark, revealing changes and recurring themes in his thoughts on politics, history, literature and friends over fifty years.This fascinating book brings together forty-two selected speeches and lectures by Professor Manning Clark.They range over fifty years from 'What of Germany', delivered in 1940, to the last, delivered in 1991 just before his death at the launch of Barry Humphries' book The Life and Death of Sandy Stone and reveal recurring themes as well as developments in Clark's thinking.In one sense they are all of a piece. They reflect the values, aspirations, regrets-and laughter-of one passionate and intelligent man. In another, they change and develop during the course of that man's intellectual and emotional career. In early manhood he analysed issues and problems ruthlessly in terms of his own values. In middle life he portrayed men and women and expounded ideas from a historical perspective. Towards his end the elegiac mood prevailed and he sought-not always successfully-to speak as a 'life affirmer' and to regard all men and women and events with the 'eye of pity'. Brings together forty-two selected speeches and lectures by Professor Manning Clark. They range over fifty years from ""What of Germany"", delivered in 1940, to the last, delivered in 1991 just before his death at the launch of Barry Humphries' book ""The Life and Death of Sandy Stone"" and reveal recurring themes in his thinking.

For example, his rebuke of 'the colossal effrontery to attempt to apply the principles and methods of the bookkeeper to the subject of human happines' resounds just as surely today as when it was first spoken. This is Manning's book. Before his death in 1991, he assembled these forty speeches and lectures for publication, grouping them as History, Politics, Literature, Friends. Newcomers curious as to why his work ans person have sparked such furious debate will find clues here, in the conjunction of his passionate public voice with his persistent personal vulnerability and self-doubt. Older readers who themselves heard Manning speak from the lectern, the pulpit or the soapbox will instantly recognise his unmistakeable voice and language. Sprache: english.
