Description

Explore the intellectual foundations of the eighteenth century with this reissue of Lucien Goldmann's work. Originally published in 1973, this Routledge Revival examines the great age of liberalism and individualism. Goldmann analyzes the mental structures used by the philosophes to challenge the ancien regime and the privileges of the Church, identifying them as irrational anachronisms. This text offers a deep look into the achievements and limitations of individualism during the Enlightenment. By assessing these historical shifts, the book provides a framework for understanding how modern thought evolved. Goldmann also discusses the perspectives of Hegel and Marx, examining the relationship between liberal skepticism and broader philosophical movements. This is an essential resource for students and readers interested in the history of ideas and the social structures that shaped the modern world.
