The book John Fiske by Thomas Sergeant Perry is a biography of the American philosopher and historian, John Fiske. Fiske was a prominent figure in the late 19th and early 20th century, known for his works on American history, philosophy, and evolution. Perry's biography provides a comprehensive look at Fiske's life, from his childhood in Connecticut to his education at Harvard and his later career as a writer and lecturer. The book explores Fiske's intellectual development, including his interest in Darwinism and his belief in the importance of reason and rationality. It also delves into his personal life, including his marriage and family, and his relationships with other notable figures of his time, such as William James and Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr. Overall, John Fiske offers a detailed and insightful portrait of one of America's most influential thinkers.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
