Fully analyzes the core motivations of the Agrarians as a movement while still taking them to task individually for their philosophical and personal mistakes (racism, political opportunism, ideological inconsistency, etc), as well as how each individuals interpretation of what it meant to be an Agrarian evolved and changed over time.The last chapter in particular artfully contrasts Neo-Agrarian and likeminded modern offshoots to the original ideology, which puts the entire movement into clear and sharp relief. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ prescient insight into American conservatism *by W***4 on Reviewed in the United States on September 12, 2002* A compelling narrative is only part of what makes this look at the most overlooked group of thinkers in American political history so gripping. Murphy introduces the novice to the thought of the Agrarians, a group of literary theorists and historians who gathered at Vanderbilt University in the 1920s. He provides a great overview of the context under which they wrote, an America in the throws of industrialization, urbanization, and post-World War I disillusionment.He then follows the Agrarians and their thought into the middle part of the twentieth century, demonstrating how the arguments made by John Crowe Ransom, Alan Tate, Donald Davidson, et. al. in their famous collection of essays "I'll Take My Stand" contributed to the emergence of conservatism in the 1950s.In the most interesting portions of the book, Murphy discusses the fact that the Agrarians, clearly conservatives, actually presaged some of the themes we now associate with the left - such as the criticisms of modern society, the decline of community, etc.Good book. Worth your time if you are in the least bit interested in the evolution of American ideological thought and Southern intellectual history. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/62377119-the-rebuke-of-history-the-southern-agrarians-and-american-conservative](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/62377119-the-rebuke-of-history-the-southern-agrarians-and-american-conservative) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-11-07*
