Reviews
"Émile Perreau-Saussine, in his recently translated Alasdair MacIntyre: An Intellectual Biography, presents himself as one such figure who can help initiate a novice philosopher into the MacIntyrean world. While the work was originally published in French in 2005, it nevertheless remains valuable nearly twenty years later in an Anglophone context, capturing the essential intellectual undercurrents which flow through MacIntyre's thought, as well as presenting a critical evaluation of his contribution." --The University Bookman, "Perreau-Saussine makes a valuable contribution for those looking to understand the context and nature of Alasdair MacIntyre's thought. He strikes a balance by pulling together biographical details, intellectual influences, and a variety of publications to craft a portrait of one of the twentieth century's most influential philosophers." --The University Bookman, "One of the most striking elements in the Foreword by Pierre Manet and throughout Perreau-Saussine's subtle rendering of Alasdair MacIntyre's intellectual contributions is the recognition that liberalism is deeply f lawed as a social-political ideology and yet at the same time, cannot be abandoned as a political framework because it allows for subjective ethical freedom." --Studies in Christian Ethics, "[F]or those who would like to consider the merits and demerits of liberal democracy in a judicious way, Émile Perreau-Saussine's critical study of one of antiliberalism's éminence grise is now available. It is both a specimen and a model of the sort of political philosophizing sorely needed in our trying times." --Law & Liberty, "Émile Perreau-Saussine, in his recently translated Alasdair MacIntyre: An Intellectual Biography, presents himself as one such figure who can help initiate a novice philosopher into the MacIntyrean world. While the work was originally published in French in 2005, it nevertheless remains valuable nearly twenty years later in an Anglophone context, capturing the essential intellectual undercurrents which flow through MacIntyre's thought, as well as presenting a critical evaluation of his contribution." --*The University Bookman *, "The scholarship behind the book--the volume of Anglophone philosophy Perreau-Saussine had to absorb, inside and outside MacIntyre's corpus--is hugely impressive. And we owe Pinkoski a debt for doing the unglamorous kind of work Perreau-Saussine himself did first." --Commonweal, "Alasdair MacIntyre is one of the most influential and widely read moral philosophers of the last three or four decades. This remarkably erudite and comprehensive book is an indispensable guide for anyone who has a serious interest in twentieth-century moral and political philosophy." --Richard Kraut, author of The Quality of Life, "On the whole, this is a[n] . . . insightful essay in intellectual history. Or rather, it is three essays, dealing respectively with MacIntyre's politics, philosophy, and theology. The first covers MacIntyre's early involvement with the British New Left. . . . A second chapter deals with the philosophy of action and ethics. . . . A last chapter, on theology, sees Perreau-Saussine return to safer ground." -- First Things, "Alasdair MacIntyre is a moral philosopher of the first rank. . . . May our contemporaries be receptive to the wisdom and moderation that informs this splendid and timely book." -- Claremont Review of Books, "[F]or those who would like to consider the merits and demerits of liberal democracy in a judicious way, Emile Perreau-Saussine's critical study of one of antiliberalism's éminence grise *is now available. It is both a specimen and a model of the sort of political philosophizing sorely needed in our trying times." --Law & Liberty*, "The book is a sympathetic treatment of the ideas that have consistently run through MacIntyre's complicated career, but it doesn't hesitate to pose to MacIntyre tough-minded intellectual challenges. It is a genuine philosophical dialogue between two serious thinkers." --Ronald Beiner, author of Dangerous Minds, "[F]or those who would like to consider the merits and demerits of liberal democracy in a judicious way, Emile Perreau-Saussine's critical study of one of antiliberalism's éminence grise is now available. It is both a specimen and a model of the sort of political philosophizing sorely needed in our trying times." --Law & Liberty, "The real value of Perreau-Saussine's biography lies less in its exposition of MacIntyre's intellectual development than in its extended clarification of what is at stake in the questions MacIntyre explores. . . . For Perreau-Saussine, political progress will come when we better navigate these tensions within the liberal order, not when we seek to resolve them entirely outside it. Whether his eminent case proves his point is worth our careful reflection." --The Hedgehog Review, "Émile Perreau-Saussine has produced an interesting and provocative interpretation of Alasdair MacIntyre and Nathan Pinkoski's translation has provided the English-speaking world access to the work....Any university library with a serious politics, philosophy, or theology program should procure a copy." --The American Journal of Jurisprudence, "Alasdair MacIntyre: An Intellectual Biography, by the philosopher Émile Perreau-Saussine, is less an academic study than an essay on MacIntyrean themes. . . It's engaging and accessible." --The Nation, "Provides a penetrating overview of the ideas of 20th-century moral philosopher Alasdair MacIntyre. . . . Perreau-Saussine proves a talented historian of ideas, cogently elucidating how such diverse traditions as Marxism, Catholicism, and Aristotelianism come together in MacIntyre's writings." -- Publishers Weekly, "MacIntyre stands in the modern intellectual landscape as one of tradition's great champions, but he was never a particularly happy warrior, even though he had a great deal to say about what makes men happy. Anyone who is intrigued by these puzzles will find this book of considerable interest." -- Law & Liberty, "[The book's] treatment of MacIntyre's religious struggles and his journey to the Catholic Church is perhaps its strongest part and will be a revelation to anyone accustomed to a more narrowly philosophical approach to MacIntyre's ideas." -- Current, "Alasdair MacIntyre: An Intellectual Biography by Émile Perreau-Saussine seeks to defend the Scottish philosopher's standing as one of the most profound theorists of capitalist modernity on either side of the Atlantic. . . . [A]long the way we do learn a great deal about MacIntyre's life and how it informed his unique blend of Marxist-Catholic Scholasticism." -- Jacobin

Synopsis
This award-winning biography, now available for the first time in English, presents an illuminating introduction to Alasdair MacIntyre and locates his thinking in the intellectual milieu of twentieth-century philosophy. Winner of the prestigious 2005 Philippe Habert Prize, the late Émile Perreau-Saussine's Alasdair MacIntyre: Une biographie intellectuelle stands as a definitive introduction to the life and work of one of today's leading moral philosophers. With Nathan J. Pinkoski's translation, this long-awaited, critical examination of MacIntyre's thought is now available to English readers for the first time, including a foreword by renowned philosopher Pierre Manent. Amid the confusions and contradictions of our present philosophical landscape, few have provided the clarity of thought and shrewdness of diagnosis like Alasdair MacIntyre. In this study, Perreau-Saussine guides his readers through MacIntyre's lifelong project by tracking his responses to liberalism's limitations in light of the human search for what is good and true in politics, philosophy, and theology. The portrait that emerges is one of an intellectual giant who comes to oppose modern liberal individualism's arguably singular focus on averting evil at the expense of a concerted pursuit of human goods founded upon moral and practical reasoning. Although throughout his career MacIntyre would engage with a number of theoretical and practical standpoints in service of his critique of liberalism, not the least of which was his early and later abandoned dalliance with Marxism, Perreau-Saussine convincingly shows how the Scottish philosopher came to hold that Aristotelian Thomism provides the best resources to counter what he perceives as the failure of the liberal project. Readers of MacIntyre's works, as well as scholars and students of moral philosophy, the history of philosophy, and theology, will find this translation to be an essential addition to their collection., "Alasdair MacIntyre: An Intellectual Biography by Émile Perreau-Saussine seeks to defend the Scottish philosopher's standing as one of the most profound theorists of capitalist modernity on either side of the Atlantic. . . . For Perreau-Saussine, the central intellectual problems with which MacIntyre was concerned were the moral vacuity of liberalism and Stalinism, the possibility of the common good and collective reasonings in an individualistic age, and the secularization of politics. Despite his explicit commitment to not sullying himself with trivial matters, along the way we do learn a great deal about MacIntyre's life and how it informed his unique blend of Marxist-Catholic Scholasticism." -- Jacobin
