Эта книга об Альберте Швейцере выходила на русском языке единственный раз, много лет назад, в серии `Жизнь замечательных людей` Она переводилась на разные языки и только на немецком ожшкн выдержала больше десятка изданий Однако советским издателям герой этой книги не показался достаточно благонадежным: верил в Бога, писал о музыке и индийской философии, играл Баха в соборах, не высказывал сочувствия коммунистам… Так что книга о великом сыне Европы дождалась переиздания лишь тридцать лет спустя, в новой редакции и в другой серии, названной более чем определенно: `Праведники` Белый Доктор, Старый Доктор, Великий Доктор из джунглей Он бросил блестящую карьеру, в тридцать лет начал с нуля, выучился на врача и уехал в самый глухой угол Центральной Африки Его знал весь мир Сделанного им за 90 лет хватило бы на десяток других жизней: он был врачом, философом, богословом, проповедником, органистом, музыковедом - и в каждой из своих ипостасей обрел мировую известность Он создал универсальную этику, основанную на принципе уважения к жизни, и сам следовал ей неукоснительно Нобелевскую премию мира он отдал на постройку лепрозория в Габоне, и это было для него так естественно Когда доктор Швейцер умер, по африканским деревням стучали тамтамы, и на десятках языков черные и белые люди говорили и пели: `Он был нам как отец`… 2-е издание Автор Борис Носик Русский писатель и переводчик Живет во Франции.  Nadi   Rand   Жадь   1280Серия: Праведники.

Book DescriptionThe Lindbergh Syndrome: Heroes and Celebrities in a New Gilded Age explores the political, media, and cyclical forces that converged at the moment Charles Lindbergh landed a tiny plane, Spirit of St Louis, at Le Bourget Field in Paris in1927 It asks, "Why did Lindbergh, a reluctant hero to begin with, become the most charismatic ожшлр personality of his era, against his will, merely for what he regarded as a scientific accomplishment? Why, in the starkest contrast, did Neil Armstrong, upon returning from the 1969 moon landing, become an anonymous citizen, who at all times has been granted the privacy Lindbergh was denied?" The Lindbergh Syndrome is presented here as a societal ailment Even as we ask, "Where have all our heroes gone?" weat once indulge in what Mark Twain in 1873 first identified as Gilded Age conceits frivolousness, laissez-faire economic policies, anti-intellectualism, and public gullibility toward business and government malfeasance Because Gilded Ages lead to cynicism and social decay, this book hopes its modest goal of calling attention to their existence will help American citizens avoid them in the future and in the process, be able once again to recognize the difference between a hero and a celebrity.  крас   9056   Arts   03-12005 г 258 стр ISBN 1587364735.
