Reviews
The essence of Steiner's magic--I don't really know what else to call it--has been his singular ability to articulate and elucidate, through nuance, allusion, and a peerless precision of language, those Phoebus-rays of wisdom that lie beyond wisdom and almost always elude words., [He] seems to know most things worth knowing and is acutely perceptive and energetically serious about them all.
Synopsis
An education in a portmanteau: George Steiner at The New Yorker collects his best work from his more than 150 pieces for the magazine., Between 1967 and 1997, George Steiner wrote more than 130 pieces on a great range of topics for The New Yorker, making new books, difficult ideas, and unfamiliar subjects seem compelling not only to intellectuals but to "the common reader." He possesses a famously dazzling mind: paganism, the Dutch Renaissance, children's games, war-time Britain, Hitler's bunker, and chivalry attract his interest as much as Levi-Strauss, Cellini, Bernhard, Chardin, Mandelstam, Kafka, Cardinal Newman, Verdi, Gogol, Borges, Brecht, Wittgenstein, Chomsky, and art historian/spy Anthony Blunt. Steiner makes an ideal guide from the Risorgimento in Italy to the literature of the Gulag, from the history of chess to the enduring importance of George Orwell. Again and again everything Steiner looks at in his New Yorker essays is made to bristle with some genuine prospect of turning out to be freshly thrilling or surprising., Between 1967 and 1997, George Steiner wrote more than 130 pieces on a great range of topics for The New Yorker , making new books, difficult ideas, and unfamiliar subjects seem compelling not only to intellectuals but to "the common reader."

    Excellent seller. Package was delayed ( by bad weather) and then misplaced at PO( placed in wrong box #) but I contacted the seller and they responded quickly and I got my item today. This seller went the extra mile and I would highly recommend them and will shop here again. I also want to say the price for this complete hard to find item was way below most of the other listings. Condition was good as stated, and although I've only watched the first disc it's quality is good. Thank you!!

    Item arrived as described and was a fair value for price paid. It felt like it took forever to arrive, based on the listing info I wasn’t expecting this item to ship from outside of the US BUT based upon the shipping information it appears it had. So it took several weeks for this small, light item to arrive. Which seemed odd due to it being small and light and easy to package to ship, it was pretty annoying. When it did finally arrive it started to make more sense that it was shipped low priori
