Freedom And Its Betrayal by Isaiah Berlin
This is one of Isaiah Berlin's earliest and most convincing expositions of his views on human freedom and the history of ideas, views which were at the heart of his lifelong work on the Enlightenment and its critics. This work throws light on the early development of Berlin's ideas.
Sir Isaiah Berlin was born in Riga, capital of Latvia, in 1909. In 9121 his family came to England, and he was educated at St Paul's School and Corpus Christi College, Oxford. At Oxford he was a Fellow of New College, Professor of Social and Political Theory, and founding President of Wolfson College. He also held the Presidency of the British Academy. As an exponent of the history of ideas he was awarded the Erasmus, Lippincott and Agnelli Prizes; he also received the Jerusalem Prize for his lifelong defence of civil liberties. He died in November 1997. Henry Hardy, a Fellow of Wolfson College, Oxford, is one of Isaiah Berlin's Literary Trustees. He has edited several other books by Berlin, and is currently preparing his letters and his remaining unpublished writings for publication.
