''The Age of Consent: The Rise of Relativism and the Corruption of Popular Culture'' is a book by Robert H. Knight published in 1998, with a foreword by Gary Bauer. It criticises modern cultural relativism, arguing that "Relativism is the cultivation of ignorance; the gateway to nihilism; a false view of reality constructed by know-nothings for know-nothings; an extremely efficient vehicle for evil, whose existence it denies." In ''Washington Times'' review (July 7, 1998) Robert Stacy McCain describes how the book "begins with a reminder of the imperfect but healthy society we inhabited before the ideology of self-gratification released the host of social pathologies from which we now suffer. Michael Medved, the film critic and author of ''Hollywood vs. America'' said the book "offers an instructive guide to the deeply dysfunctional ideas behind our current dilemma." () Robert Knight is the director of cultural studies at the Family Research Council, a social studies think-tank, has held fellowships at the Heritage Foundation and the Hoover Institution and was an editor and writer for the ''Los Angeles Times''. ==Editions== * ''The Age of Consent: The Rise of Relativism and the Corruption of Popular Culture'', Spence Publishing Company, ISBN 1-890626-05-8 * (Human Events Review ) * (Academia.org review ) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Age of Consent (book)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
