Presenting an account of 'the question of intellectuals' in twentieth-century Britain, this book aims to challenge the myth that there are no 'real' intellectuals in Britain. It offers an analysis of 'the intellectual' as a concept, as well as detailed discussions of influential figures, such as T S Eliot, George Orwell, and Edward Said.
