Lewis Lapham on education and intellectual life in the postmodern USA

Kevin Arthur has posted a few paragraphs from recent article by Lewis Lapham on the education and intellectual life in the United States. Kevin picked out a few choice parts that concern the place of the humanities in the technological age (this being the focus of his blog), but Library Juice readers may be interested in Lapham’s broader diagnosis of what is wrong with present-day American culture. The article was published in Lapham’s Quarterly. (Lapham is the longtime editor of Harper’s Magazine.)
