Talk:Herbert Read

Read & Stirner

Deleted misleading un-sourced reference to Stirner in opening para. Why? Woodcock, for example, states: 'Thus Max Stirner's egoism is rejected by Read in favour of the anarchist-communism of Kropotkin, or at least of his own adaptation of that doctrine.' (Herbert Read: The Stream and the Source, London: Faber & Faber, 1972, p. 223.) Wingspeed (talk) 14:22, 14 April 2014 (UTC)

I don't think the information recently appended concerning Frank McEwen really tells us anything substantial about Herbert Read. I would suggest this remark should be deleted. --Antisyzygy 15:25, 2 December 2006 (UTC)o

Not enough about art

Seeing as Read is known as an art critic and historian, there is not enough in this article about art. Pelarmian (talk) 21:02, 6 May 2013 (UTC)

marriages and children

It's strange that there's no mention at all here of his two marriages or his children. One of his children even has his own Wikipedia page. 2600:1700:BC01:9B0:4D51:B483:3D9F:FCF1 (talk) 21:20, 15 July 2025 (UTC)
