Leaving the 20th Century: Incomplete Work of the Situationist International by C

Description: Leaving the 20th Century by Christopher Gray First published in 1974, 'Leaving..' was the first collection of Situationist writing in English. Chris Gray, its editor, was himself a member of the SI. Long out of print, it has gained an enormous reputation. This new, lavish, oversize edition, keeps the original provocative, and free and easy translations, along with the cut and paste graphics, poster-art and cartoons. It stands as a remarkable, and eminently accessible, introduction to a remarkable (and oft-times superficially at least, inaccessible) revolutionary project. Now as we stand at the gates of the 21st century, it is time for a new generation of readers to take up this remarkable book. FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description Originally published in 1875, this early works is a fascinating manual of object lessons for parents and teachers with much of the information still useful and practical today. It will be observed that the lessons are divided into three distinct stages. These correspond approximately with the beginning, middle and close of the infant-school course, supposing the child to enter at the age of four or five, and to leave at six or seven. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork. Author Biography Christopher Gray (1942-2009) was well known for his involvement in the 1960s with Situationist International, for his various radical writings, and as Swami Prem Paritosh, disciple of the guru Osho. He translated Raoul Vaneigems Banalites de Base (as The Totality for Kids) and is the author of Leaving the Twentieth Century, the first English language anthology of Situationist ideas, and the biography Life of Osho.
