The Political Ideas Of Leo Strauss
Shadia Drury's thesis is pretty much that Strauß was a closet Nietzschean (and, perhaps, also a closet homosexual--she only grazes that suggestion in the book, though; for a more detailed examination of Strauß' views on homosexuality, see Drury's review of The Rebirth of Classical Political Rationalism in the November 1991 issue of Political Theory, pp. 671-5). Well, I already knew this, but it is really nice to have a detailed account of Strauß' Nietzscheanism if only to rob the Straussians of their insufferably smug sanctimony.
