The Pop Intellectual as Antichrist

Winthrop, Henry

Journal of Aesthetic Education, 6, 1, 211-29, Jan-Apr 72

The author characterizes pop intellectuals as shallow, undisciplined, and anti-intellectual, with little knowledge of western civilization and great indifference to systematic, reasoned, and analytical learning. He says they must shape up if they are to be a constructive rather than destructive force. (JB)
