Description:
Pompano Beach: Exposition Press of Florida, 1985. Collection of 9 essays & speeches on racism & justice, self-improvement, music. SIGNED by the author on the free endsheet, with "Best Wishes"; laid in is a small folded 'thanks for sympathy' card with a hand-written note by Jackson to Donald & Mercedes [Russell]. Jackson, born & educated in Texas and Alabama, was a musician, teacher, journalist, activist, & government official; this is noted as his eighth published full-length work; he died in 2016 at the age of 89. While some cataloguers refer to Exposition Press as a 'vanity press' (authors paid to have their work published), the gatekeeping of white publishers often left Black authors no other choice. Rather than reflecting the interests & concerns of such publishers these scarce publications show the deep interests of Black writers even at this later date. Hardcover in jacket. Light wear to book; jacket shows a little edgewear & rubbing, minor…

Description:
Chicago: University of Chicago Press, 1952. Jaffa's first book, a scholarly study of Aquinas's Commentary on Aristotle's Nichomachean Ethics. Jaffa asserts that since Aristotle was Aquinas's authority for "all matters knowable by reason unassisted by divine revelation", examinations of Neo-Thomist doctrine must start with Aristotle's Ethics; he also compares differences in their analyses of moral phenomena and "criticizes Thomas' technique as a commentator". Jaffa, also a scholar on Abraham Lincoln's ideas, was influential in the modern American conservative movement, emphasizing the importance of natural rights over relativism and the relation between the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution; he wrote Barry Goldwater's famous "Extremism in the defense of liberty is no vice" line.
