Description

Linguistic Turns rewrites the intellectual and cultural history of early twentieth-century Europe by examining how major thinkers invested language with extraordinary force during a period of profound social and political upheaval. This Oxford University Press volume traces the work of Saussure, Russell, Wittgenstein, Bakhtin, Benjamin, Cassirer, Shklovskii, the Russian Futurists, Ogden and Richards, Sorel, Gramsci and others, demonstrating how the linguistic turn became central to European intellectual life. By studying these linguistic turns in concert rather than isolation, the book reveals new connections across philosophy, literary theory, cultural criticism and social thought, reshaping our understanding of how language became a lens through which intellectuals analysed society, politics and meaning-making in the modern age.

Examines the Russian Futurists and Shklovskii alongside Western theorists to provide a comprehensive European perspective.

Analyses how language became a central tool for understanding social and political change during a transformative historical period.
