Addresses in America, published in 1919 by John Galsworthy, is a collection of speeches reflecting on the cultural and linguistic connections between English-speaking nations following World War I. Galsworthy emphasizes the importance of shared language and literature, moral integrity in public discourse, and the dangers of nationalism. The work begins with an address honoring New England writers, particularly James Russell Lowell, and explores how post-war societies can unite through the arts and mutual respect. This collection is notable for its insights into the responsibilities of societies in transition during a pivotal historical moment.
