American satirist and critic HENRY LOUIS MENCKEN (1880-1956) believed that criticism rose to the level of art when it was used as a springboard for the critic's own philosophizing on art and culture. In this Third Series of *Prejudices, * first published in 1922, he brings his unique-and uniquely witty-perspective to such essays as: - \"On Being an American\" - \"Footnote on Criticism\" - \"Das Kapital\" - \"Star-Spangled Men\" - \"The Poet and His Art\" - \"The Nature of Liberty\" - \"The Novel\" - \"The Forward-Looker\" - \"Types of Men\" - \"The Dismal Science\" - \"Matters of State\" - \"Reflections on the Drama\" - and more.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e H.
