Description
The Cambridge History of Modern European Thought is an authoritative and comprehensive exploration of the themes, thinkers and movements that shaped our intellectual world in the late-eighteenth and nineteenth century.
Representing both individual figures and the contexts within which they developed their ideas, each essay is written in a clear accessible style by leading scholars in the field and offers both originality and interpretive insight.
This second volume surveys twentieth-century European intellectual history, conceived as a crisis in modernity.
Comprised of twenty-one chapters, it focuses on figures such as Freud, Heidegger, Adorno and Arendt, surveys major schools of thought including Phenomenology, Existentialism, and Conservatism, and discusses critical movements such as Postcolonialism, , Structuralism, and Post-structuralism.
Renouncing a single 'master narrative' of European thought across the period, Peter E.
Gordon and Warren Breckman establish a formidable new multi-faceted vision of European intellectual history for the global modern age.
