"I like you, reader. You are wandering in a store [or library], judging books by their covers. You're the type of easily influenced person that I want to convince to help save society. To find out how the New Dark Ages started and usher in the Intellectual Restoration, I visited the country with the highest percentage of Trump voters. I went to the home of Trump-loving Dilbert cartoonist Scott Adams, talked to Tucker Carlson, got lessons in obfuscation from a fake news king-pin, and reproduced the experience of being an inexperienced government official by acting as mayor of Los Angeles for a day. All while wearing a cravat. And after the pandemic struck, I felt obliged to write three new chapters about recent developments: I talked to America's frontline doctors after they backed an FDA-banned medication, dove into the QAnon conspiracy theory, and investigated how my term 'the boat elite' had come to life and taken to the seas. What I learned will change the way you think, vote, sleep, eat, and pronounce certain words that you read in these pages and then look up online. Best of all, it will infuriate your relatives when they see it on your coffee table." -- Back cover.

When Novels Were Books

A literary scholar explains how eighteenth-century novels were manufactured, sold, bought, owned, collected, and read alongside Protestant religious texts. As the novel developed into a mature genre, it had to distinguish itself from these similar-looking books and become what we now call “literature.” Literary scholars have explained the rise of the Anglophone novel using a range of tools, from Ian Watt’s theories to James Watt’s inventions. Contrary to established narratives, When Novels Were Books reveals that the genre beloved of so many readers today was not born secular, national, middle-class, or female. For the first three centuries of their history, novels came into readers...

For more than one hundred years—from the beginning of the twentieth to the early twenty-first century—Latin American populists proved amazingly successful at gaining high office, holding on to power, maintaining their followings, and renewing their careers. They raised more campaign money, got more voters to the polls,and held followers’ allegiances far better than traditional politicians. Certainly some populist leaders were corrupt, others manipulated their followers, a...
