Overview

According to legend, Santayana (1863-1952) was alerted that his job at Harvard was in jeopardy unless he published a book on philosophy, rather than more collections of his poetry. So he obliged, drawing on the undergraduate course in aesthetics he was teaching at the time. The book was published by Charles Scribner and Sons. An introduction is provided by John McCormick (comparative literature, Rutgers U.), who has written a biography of Santayana. Cited in Books for College Libraries, 3rd. ed.Annotation c.
