Strauss, Leo, “The Meaning of Political History,” The Rebirth of Classical Political Rationalism, ed. T. Pangle Chicago: U. of Chicago Press, 1989.

Review:

This concise and accessible introduction to Strauss’s thought provides, for wider audience, a bridge to his more complex theoretical work. Editor Pangle has gathered five of Strauss’s previously unpublished lectures and five hard-to-find published writings and has arranged them so as to demonstrate the systematic progression of the major themes that underlay Strauss’s mature work.

“[These essays] display the incomparable insight and remarkable range of knowledge that set Strauss’s works apart from any other twentieth-century philosopher’s.”

—Charles R. Kesler, National Review
