In this centenary volume distinguished ancient historians and Americanists analyse Finley’s political and intellectual evolution, and attempt to understand the paradoxes of the young leftist and victim of McCarthyism whose work owes more to Weber than to Marx and of the young Jewish scholar (Moses Finkelstein) who distanced himself from Jewishness.Columbia studies in the classical tradition ;v. 40.ClassicistsUnited StatesBiographyClassicistsGreat BritainBiographyEconomic historyTo 500Anti-communist movementsUnited StatesClassicistsClassicistsEconomic historyAnti-communist movements938.007202Harris William V(William Vernon)209722Cartledge Paul176602MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910789144303321Moses Finley and politics3848805UNINA
