The essays, edited by David E. Spiech, Martin A. Coleman, and Faedra Lazar Weiss, and introduced by Paul Forster, address the broad sweep of intellectual trends—or, as the title suggests, the ever-changing winds of thought—of the Spanish-born American thinker’s time. The topics range from the secularization of American culture to the rise of religious modernism to the “genteel tradition” in American philosophy, the subject of Santayana’s final lecture in America and perhaps his best known essay.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe original \u003ci\u003eWinds of Doctrine\u003c\/i\u003e, published in 1913, was the first book published after Santayana’s 1912 departure for Europe. Santayana had felt stifled at Harvard for some time, and his long-contemplated resignation from academia released him from previous obligations and allowed him a new freedom to think and write. Much later, Santayana remarked on the significance of that choice to step away: “In \u003ci\u003eWinds of Doctrine \u003c\/i\u003eand my subsequent books, a reader of my earlier writings may notice a certain change of climate. . . . It was not my technical philosophy that was principally affected, but rather the meaning and status of philosophy for my inner man.”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAn insightful document of American intellectual history, supplemented with annotations and rich textual commentary, \u003ci\u003eWinds of Doctrine \u003c\/i\u003eis a vital and engaging survey of the religious, political, philosophical, and literary trends of the twentieth century.Acknowledgments ix\u003cbr\u003eIntroduction by Paul Forster xi\u003cbr\u003ePreface to the second edition (1926) lxxxi\u003cbr\u003eTable of contents based on Scribner's first edition (1913) lxxxiii\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eWinds of Doctrine: Studies in Contemporary Opinion\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e(Critical Edition text) 1\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEditorial Appendix\u003cbr\u003eExplanation of the Editorial Appendix 147\u003cbr\u003eEditorial Sigla and Symbols 149\u003cbr\u003eStandard Reference Bibliography 151\u003cbr\u003eNotes to the Text 159\u003cbr\u003eChronology of the Life and Work of George Santayana 303\u003cbr\u003eTextual Record\u003cbr\u003eTextual Commentary 307\u003cbr\u003eDiscussions of Adopted Readings 325\u003cbr\u003eList of Emendations 327\u003cbr\u003eReport of Line-End Hyphenation 329\u003cbr\u003eList of Variants 331\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIndex 333George Santayana (1863–1952) was a philosopher, poet, critic, and novelist.
