The Main Stream

Bag om The Main Stream

The Main Stream is a book written by Stuart Sherman that explores the concept of ""mainstream"" and its impact on society. The author delves into the idea of what is considered mainstream and how it affects our daily lives, from our choices in music and entertainment to our political beliefs and social norms. Sherman argues that the mainstream is not just a neutral force, but rather a powerful tool that can be used to shape and control our thoughts and actions. He also examines the ways in which the mainstream is constantly changing and evolving, and how this can lead to both progress and stagnation. The book is a thought-provoking analysis of a fundamental aspect of modern society, and is sure to be of interest to anyone interested in cultural studies, sociology, or media studies.1927. A collection of essays on writers and books by the late Stuart Sherman, all of which exhibit his theory of the function of a critic in a time of change as being that of revealing to the public those qualities which are truly vital and significant in the writings of the day. Among the personalities discussed, for instance are Sandburg, Lincoln, Thoreau, Burroughs, Beebe, Mark Twain, Dean Briggs, Dreiser, Mark Sullivan, Ring W. Lardner, George Moore, Walter de la Mare, Edith Wharton, Anatole France. They constitute a series of essays which fully explain that pre-eminence as an American critic which Stuart Sherman had come to hold.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
