William F. Buckley Jr.

    24. November 1925 – 27. Februar 2008

    William F. Buckley Jr. war eine prägende Stimme im amerikanischen intellektuellen Diskurs, bekannt für seine gebildete, witzige und unverwechselbar formulierte Prosa. Er verband geschickt traditionellen amerikanischen Konservatismus mit ökonomischem Libertarismus und Antikommunismus und prägte so die Richtung des modernen konservativen Denkens. Durch seine umfangreichen Schriften und öffentlichen Kommentare erforschte Buckley komplexe politische und historische Themen mit einer einzigartigen intellektuellen Strenge. Sein Werk wird weiterhin wegen seines Einflusses auf die konservative Ideologie und seines anspruchsvollen literarischen Stils studiert.

    • Celebrate 70 years of the classic! "For God, for country, and for Yale... in that order," William F. Buckley Jr. wrote as the dedication of his monumental work—a compendium of knowledge that still resonates within the halls of the Ivy League university that tried to cover up its political and religious bias. In 1951, a twenty-five-year-old Yale graduate published his first book, which exposed the "extraordinarily irresponsible educational attitude" that prevailed at his alma mater. The book, God and Man at Yale, rocked the academic world and catapulted its young author, William F. Buckley Jr. into the public spotlight. Now, half a century later, read the extraordinary work that began the modern conservative movement. Buckley's harsh assessment of his alma mater divulged the reality behind the institution's wholly secular education, even within the religion department and divinity school. Unabashed, one former Yale student details the importance of Christianity and heralds the modern conservative movement in his preeminent tell-all, God and Man at Yale: The Superstitions of "Academic Freedom."
