European Intellectual History from Rousseau to Nietzsche, Paperback / softback Book

European Intellectual History from Rousseau to Nietzsche Paperback / softback

Edited by Richard A. Lofthouse

Paperback / softback

Description

One of the most distinguished cultural and intellectual historians of our time, Frank Turner taught a landmark Yale University lecture course on European intellectual history that drew scores of students over many years.

His lectures—lucid, accessible, beautifully written, and delivered with a notable lack of jargon—distilled modern European history from the Enlightenment to the dawn of the twentieth century and conveyed the turbulence of a rapidly changing era in European history through its ideas and leading figures.  Richard A. Lofthouse, one of Turner’s former students, has now edited the lectures into a single volume that outlines the thoughts of a great historian on the forging of modern European ideas.

Moreover, it offers a fine example of how intellectual history should be taught: rooted firmly in historical and biographical evidence.
