Thompson -- Bibliography -- Index 330 8 $aGeorg Luka?cs stands as a towering figure in the areas of critical theory, literary criticism, aesthetics, ethical theory and the philosophy of Marxism and German Idealism. Yet, despite his influence throughout the twentieth century, his contributions to the humanities and theoretical social sciences are marked by neglect. What has been lost is a crucial thinker in the tradition of critical theory, but also, by extension, a crucial set of ideas that can be used to shed new light on the major problems of contemporary society. This book reconsiders Luka?cs' intellectual contributions in the light of recent intellectual developments in political theory, aesthetics, ethical theory, and social and cultural theory. An international team of contributors contend that Luka?cs' ideas and theoretical contributions have much to offer the theoretical paucity of the present. Ultimately the book reintegrates Luka?cs as a central thinker, not only in the tradition of critical theory, but also as a major theorist and critic of modernity, of capitalism, and of new trends in political theory, cultural criticism and legal theory 606 $2Philosophy: aesthetics 676 $a199/.439 702 $aThompson$b Michael$f1973- 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 801 2$bUkLoBP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910789666103321 996 $aGeorg Lukacs reconsidered$93749866 997 $aUNINA
