Visions of Utopia (New York Public Library Lectures in Humanities) Hardcover - 2003
by Rothstein, Edward; Muschamp, Herbert; Marty, Martin
- New
- Hardcover
From the sex-free paradise of the Shakers to the worker's paradise of Marx, utopian ideas seem to have two things in common--they all are wonderfully plausible at the start and they all end up as disasters. Three leading cultural critics look at the history of utopian thinking, exploring why they fail and why they are still worth pursuing.

First line
AND IT SHALL COME TO PASS, IN THE END OF DAYS, THAT RIVERS OF MILK AND nectar shall flow, that the wolf shall dwell with the lamb and spears shall be beaten into pruning hooks, that philosophers shall be kings, that there will be no hypocrisy, dissembling, deceit, flattery, strife, or discord.
