	Arnold J. Toynbee
		Arnold Joseph Toynbee (1889 - 1975), British historian whose ten-volume analysis of the rise and fall of civilizations, A Study of History, 1934 - 1961, (also known as History of the World) is "acknowledged as one of the greatest achievements of modern scholarship." [1] (http://www.oup-usa.org/isbn/0195050800.html)
		Toynbee, a prolific author, was the nephew of a great economic historian, Arnold Toynbee, with whom he is sometimes confused.
		Born in London, Arnold J was educated at Winchester College and Balliol College, Oxford.

		Arnold Joseph Toynbee (April 14, 1889 - October 22, 1975) was a British historian whose twelve-volume analysis of the rise and fall of civilizations, A Study of History, 1934-1961, was a synthesis of global history, a metahistory based on universal rhythms of rise, flowering and decline.
		Toynbee's ideas have not perhaps proved of great influence on other historians; his overall theory certainly was taken up by some scholars, for example, Ernst Robert Curtius, as a sort of paradigm in the post-war period.
		Toynbee supervised the compilation of the first of the 1939-1946 volumes, and wrote a preface for both that and the 1947-1948 volume.

	Guardian \| Anne Wollheim
		She was 18 when she met Philip Toynbee and they married in the same year, 1939, to the consternation of her parents - though they couldn't help liking Philip (he had been first communist presi dent of the Oxford Union), despite his unsuitability as a husband.
		Anne and Philip plunged into London's prewar bohemian society, where the drinking, which had already taken hold of Philip, was facilitated and encouraged by the Gargoyle Club in Soho.
		As it happened, it was Philip who brought the shaky marriage to an end: he invited Richard Wollheim, then a philosophy don, to stay, and he arrived on a freezing winter day.

	TIME.com: The Well-Wrought Churn -- Mar. 26, 1965 -- Page 1
		Of such is the verse form Author Toynbee has invented "after many experiments" to carry the narrative of his eighth novel, ostensibly the reminiscences of an old Anglo-Norwegian attempting in the year 1999 to recapture and finally comprehend the essence of a brother who died in 1936.
		The result is intended to serve as "a mosaic of insights, a constellation of enlightening moments" as the two brothers tour prewar Europe, from Bonn and its dueling societies to Paris and the Café des Espions.
		But Toynbee, son of Historian Arnold Toynbee, and literary critic of the London Sunday Observer, has in fact got so preoccupied with his craft that he has left out the most essential ingredient of the poet's art: passion.

		Philip Toynbee: When Decca opened her bag, Balkan Sobrani cigarettes cascaded to the floor of my room, and it was clear that the barbarians had not come away without their spoils.
		Philip Toynbee: Before his departure for America he had already become more mellow, but his mellowing had taken the form of a more indulgent good-humor than a greater gentleness or pirt.

	The New York Review of Books: An Exchange on Sidney Hook
		Toynbee is right in holding that it is a mistake to regard all "libertarian" demands as indivisible, in the "mystical cause of revolutionary opposition." He is also correct when he says that the slogans "student power" and "fl power" are not of the same order.
		For many of the remediable evils which concern student radicals do profoundly overlap those which outrage the fls: the draft, the spreading war in Southeast Asia, the continuing inability of fls, as well as other impoverished people in our country, to obtain forms of higher education commensurate with their gifts and needs.
		Toynbee seems to think, from the fact that one recognizes distinctions that one cannot go on to relate the things distinguished.

		This, Novelist Toynbee implies, is what is meant by the word maturity.

		He also writes touchingly, but with little insight, about Philip Larkin and Anthony Powell, but both men are shown at least once in an unfavorable light as though Amis feared they might grow vain with too much praise, even though Larkin is dead.
		Powell threw doubts on the accuracy of one of the malicious stories Amis gives about Philip Toynbee, who was the literary editor of The Observer newspaper and a man of liberal, modernist sympathies.
		Toynbee feared the liquor would not flow freely and called in at a pub on his way to the meal in order to tank-up.

		As an undergraduate, he joined the Communist Party, an action for which he was fllisted for a time in Hollywood; Jessica Mitford later described Moffat as spanning "the gap between left-wing politics and the deb dance scene".
		Moffat maintained his father's tradition of bohemian entertainment and became a habitue of the Gargoyle Club in Soho, mixing with Philip Toynbee, son of the historian Arnold Toynbee, and Dylan Thomas, whom he claimed to have got his first job at Strand Films.
		When America entered the war, Moffat enlisted as a writer in the special coverage unit of the US Army Signals Corps - the so-called "Hollywood Irregulars" who under the director George Stevens were charged with improving film coverage of the war.

		She admits that many years ago, she and her friends thought they'd found the way to achieve a classless society - everyone should simply drop out of university and go live as a hippy in Wales, like she did.
		The Guardian columnist (Toynbee) is a devout enthusiast for New Labour who believes that higher taxes and greater state spending are the way to solve most social problems, including crime and poverty.
		In an ideal Polly Toynbee world, private sector broadcasting would be banned, Rupert Murdoch would be nationalised, and the BBC would hire thousands more taxpayer-funded social affairs correspondents to psalm the benefits of social democracy.

		She sounds like a sullen teenager slamming the door to her room shrieking, "I didn't ask to be born!" at her parents.
		I think despite her vitriol, this Polly Toynbee's problem is that she really was moved, deep down, and she resents the affront to her personal god-hood.
		She probably also resents that children will be uplifted by the Christian message and understand it far better than she gives them credit for and better than she herself is able to due to her hardened heart.

		The most common criticism, in fact, was that Trilling was too firmly ensconsed in liberal thought.
		Philip Toynbee of the New York Times wrote that "readers should not be lulled by [the book's] extreme persuasiveness into forgetting that it has been written from a definite point of view, and one which is not alone in its contemporary validity."
		Writing in The Nation, Irving Howe commented that "Trilling writes with a high regard for the possibilities of the English language, for the dramatic gesture an essay may become, and for the sheer pleasure discussion of literature may bring."
