Allan Bloom is Professor in the Committee on Social Thought and the College and co-director of the John M. Olin Center for Inquiry into the Theory and Practice of Democracy at the University of Chicago. He has taught at Yale, University of Paris, University of Toronto, Tel Aviv University, and Cornell, where he was the recipient of the Clark Teaching Award in 1967. His other books are Plato's Republic (translator and editor), Politics and the Arts: Rousseau's Letter to d'Alembert (translator and editor), Rousseau's Emile (translator and editor), and Shakespeare's Politics (with Harry V.

重读第二卷里价值里提到为什么韦伯值得注意，为什么所谓的“新教伦理”跟托克维尔在《美国民主》里宗教抑制资本主义的结论相悖，以及美国本土化后的加尔文主义中留有的资本主义痕迹。
