George Grant

    George Parkin Grant byl kanadský filozof, profesor a politický komentátor, jehož dílo se vyznačuje hlubokou meditací nad klasiky západní civilizace a konfrontací s hlavními mysliteli této tradice. Jeho spisy zkoumají témata kanadského nacionalismu, politického konzervatismu, vlivu technologií na společnost a křesťanské víry. Grant je považován za jednoho z nejoriginálnějších kanadských myslitelů, jehož pohledy ovlivnily jak akademickou sféru, tak širší kanadskou politickou kulturu, a jehož práce se často opírá o neohegelovskou idealistickou tradici.
