Revealing and enlightening, Conversations with Isaiah Berlin gives a close view of one of the foremost thinkers of our time. Philosopher and leading proponent of liberal thinking, Isaiah Berlin has changed our sense of history and the world. His impact on the intellectual and political views of the second half of the twentieth century alone makes it critical to understand his works and analyze his thoughts, and these conversations are a perfect introduction to both. This revised edition follows Isaiah Berlin from Petrograd to Oxford, Washington to Moscow, and London to Jerusalem. The topics range broadly from philosophy to music, history to literature, Judaism to Israel, Marx and Machiavelli to his extraordinary encounters with Anna Akhmatova and Boris Pasternak in post-war Russia.

The variety of issues touched by one of the most important thinkers of the XX th Century. Although humbleness wasn't his strong side, one has to concede his brilliant approach on so various themes such as politics, history, literature, music, philosophy or poetry.

The book of I. Berlin is a proof that "thinking" and being "creative" isn't a recent discovery after the fall of the "Berlin Wall", but that there is a deep reflection on essential subjects almost since the "dawn of Time"!
It's not really the case, but I. Berlin as crossed a terrible century, being born in a Northern country ( and afterwards "no country", and "country again", now a member of EU...)! Flying ( almost every time, to escape human stupidity and, of course, by no "good" reasons..)he managed to build a 2 World View" that is a lesson for all of us, teaching a "pen mind" to thousands od admirers and students, in the most important field of Literature and Philosophy, always with no "arrogance", but a gentle man that is a symbol of the "best" things the XXth century as offer to posterity!

3.0 out of 5 stars Quirky and moderately interviewing interview transcripts
Reviewed in the United States on May 5, 2012
Verified Purchase
A very random set of interviews wandering thorought topics the interviewer found interesting. The transcripts are highly colloquial and contain extensive references to fairly obscure writers, poets and philosophers. Berlin's theory of pluralism is discussed to some degree, but most of the material is him simply being asked what he thinks of this writer or that. Much of the material will be over the head of the uninitiated.
