{"product_id":"speaking-out-of-turn-manning-clark-9780522847703","title":"Speaking Out of Turn: Lectures and Speeches 1940-1991","description":"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 \u003ci\u003eThe Life and Death of Sandy Stone\u003c\/i\u003e 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'.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Manning Clark\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0522847706\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780522847703\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Melbourne University\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/12\/1993\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 284\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"Manning Clark","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48457689006335,"sku":"9780522847703","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_158a037f-f9d7-4d16-8b96-9f96dbe5e4a7.jpg?v=1777400484","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/speaking-out-of-turn-manning-clark-9780522847703","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
