Verso Books Marxist Modernism: Introductory Lectures on Frankfurt School Critical Theory

Marxist Modernism is a comprehensive yet concise and conversational introduction to the Frankfurt School. It is also a new resource from one of the twentieth century's most important philosophers: Gillian Rose. Her 1979 lectures on the Frankfurt School explore the lives and philosophies of a range of the school's members and affiliates, including Adorno, Lukács, Brecht, Bloch, Benjamin, and Horkheimer, and outline the way each theorist developed Marx's theory of commodity fetishism into a Marxist theory of culture. Edited by Robert Lucas Scott and James Gordon Finlayson Autorid: Gillian Rose, Martin Jay, Robert Lucas Scott, James Gordon Finlayson
