What Carrol just said on "the peasantry, " reminds me of , "Gates of Eden, " by Morris Dickstein. Great book on Cold War Kultur and the 60's reaction against it, both in elite and mass contexts (rock and roll). First chapter deals with the Leslie Fiedler review of the Rosenbergs Prison Letters in Commentary. Later published in a book of his essays by Beacon Press. Fiedler assails the Popular Front kitsch sentimentality of Ethel and Julius letters to their kids, Michael and Robert.

Michael, btw, has a book on Clintonomics from U. Massachusetts Press. Good blurbs. Michael Pugliese
