In 'Essays in Persuasion,' John Maynard Keynes articulates his cogent analyses of economic policies and theory during the tumultuous periods between the two world wars. The collection offers an intimate examination of the societal and political implications of fiscal strategies and the human consequences they can harbor. Keynes' prose combines incisive argumentation with eloquent rhetoric, inviting readers into a contemplation of economics as a deeply humanist discipline. These essays not only delineate the evolution of Keynesian thought but also contextualize it within the broader literary and economic conversations of the early 20th century, resonating with the concerns of contemporaneous intellectuals and policymakers. John Maynard Keynes stands as a towering figure in the landscape of economic philosophy, his ideas shaping the policies of nations and the course of global finance. His profound insights in 'Essays in Persuasion' mirror his experiences as a participant in the 1919 Paris Peace Conference and his disappointments with the Versailles Treaty. Keynes' passion for economic reform and stabilization was driven by his conviction that sound economic policy could serve as a bulwark against the societal upheavals and the tribulations of the interwar years. 'Essays in Persuasion' is a compelling read for anyone with interest in the forces that sculpt our economic realities. It is an essential addition to the libraries of economists, historians, and political scientists. With clarity and conviction, Keynes does not merely inform; he challenges and entices the reader to engage with the ideological underpinnings of economic decisions and their pervasive influence on the fabric of society. For contemporary audiences, Keynes' visionary ideas offer a timeless reflection on the application of economic thought to practical problems and the enduring quest for a just and prosperous world order.

Leading economists revisit a provocative essay by John Maynard Keynes, debating Keynes's vision of growth, inequality, work, leisure, entrepreneurship, consumerism, and the search for happiness in the twenty-first century. In 1931 distinguished economist John Maynard Keynes published a short essay, “Economic Possibilities for Our Grandchildren,” in his collection Essays in Persuasion. In the essay, he expressed optimism for the economic future despite the doldrums of the post-World War I years and the onset of the Great Depression. Keynes imagined that by 2030 the standard of living would be dramatically higher; people, liberated from want (and without the desire to consume for the sake of consumption), would work no more than fifteen hours a week, devoting the rest of their time to leisure and culture. In Revisiting Keynes, leading contemporary economists consider what Keynes got right in his essay—the rise in the standard of living, for example—and what he got wrong—such as a shortened work week and consumer satiation. In so doing, they raise challenging questions about the world economy and contemporary lifestyles in the twenty-first century. The contributors—among them, four Nobel laureates in economics—point out that although Keynes correctly predicted economic growth, he neglected the problems of distribution and inequality. Keynes overestimated the desire of people to stop working and underestimated the pleasures and rewards of work—perhaps basing his idea of “economic bliss” on the life of the English gentleman or the ideals of his Bloomsbury group friends. In Revisiting Keynes, Keynes's short essay—usually seen as a minor divertissement compared to his other more influential works—becomes the catalyst for a lively debate among some of today's top economists about economic growth, inequality, wealth, work, leisure, culture, and consumerism.

Lucas Haasis found a time capsule: A complete mercantile letter archive of the merchant Nicolaus Gottlieb Luetkens who lived in 18th century Hamburg. Luetkens travelled France between 1743-1745 in order to become a successful wholesale merchant. He succeeded in this undertaking via both shrewd business practice and proficient skills in the practice of letter writing. Based on this unique discovery, in this microhistorical study Lucas Haasis examines the crucial steps and activities of a mercantile establishment phase, the typical letter practices of Early Modern merchants, and the practical principles of persuasion leading to success in the 18th century.

This book was first published in 1975, the bicentenary of Jane Austen's birth. Though she has long been recognized as one of the major English novelists her reputation was established relatively late and has withstood periods of neglect and controversy. The present volume brings together nineteen essays that marked the bicentenary and in doing so reflected the critical attitudes which some of the twentieth century's most influential scholars have entertained towards the novelist. These essays range from nineteenth-century reactions to the novels and to the novelist herself, through twentieth-century criticism of the individual novels, to considerations of the novelist's reputation abroad. This book will be of interest both to scholars and students of eighteenth- and nineteenth-century fiction and also to the general reader of Jane Austen's novels.
