Mencken's "Prejudices, Second Series" emerged as a provocative critique of societal norms. This collection of essays dissects the mediocrity in American literature and the pervasive anti-intellectualism that Mencken observed. With his characteristic sharp wit, he challenges readers to confront uncomfortable truths about cultural complacency and the value of genuine artistic expression. Ideal for students, civic activists, and historians, this work invites a deeper examination of the forces shaping American thought. Engage with Mencken’s incisive commentary and discover the enduring relevance of his insights into the complexities of American culture.
