description: Unique in his contribution to American letters, George Santayana (1863-1952) combined literary and philosophical talents to produce a wide range of writings, among them important works of philosophy, a best-selling novel, volumes of poetry, and many studies in literary criticism. This book introduces the main currents of Santayana's thought, connecting his biography to his intellectual development and tracing the recurrent theme of alienation in his life and works.
