Cambridge University Press Cambridge History of Modern European Thought 2 Volume Paperback Set

The Cambridge History of Modern European Thought is an authoritative and comprehensive exploration of the themes, thinkers and movements that shaped our intellectual world from the late eighteenth century to the present. Representing both individual figures and the contexts within which they developed their ideas, this two-volume history is rich with original interpretive insight, and is written in a clear and accessible style by leading scholars in the field. Renouncing a single 'master narrative' of European thought across the period, Breckman and Gordon establish a formidable new multi-faceted vision of European intellectual history for the global modern age. This two-volume history offers a comprehensive survey of the major themes, thinkers, and movements that shaped our intellectual world from the late eighteenth century to the present. It explores not only individual figures, but also the political, social, institutional and disciplinary contexts within which they developed their ideas. Autorid: Warren Breckman, Peter E. Gordon
