Summary: | Mumford could hardly have been considered a "New Ager," at least as that term has been used in recent years. He was an extraordinary historian, combining vast and scholarly knowledge of the past with intuitive and visionary sensibilities. Before most of us had any inkling of the radical changes about to threaten our world, and our worldview remember the 1950's? — Mumford realized that humanity was on the threshold of an evolutionary growth spurt. Particularly important for the concerns of this article is that Mumford, a secular and academic historian, perceived the emerging new age as one which would be characterized by "a fresh release of spiritual energy." |
