Description
"Written by one of the most influential figures in post-World-War-II social thought, A Theory of Modernity is a comprehensive analysis of the main dynamics of modernity.". "Heller's unique exploration of the canonical works of Hegel, Marx, Weber, Nietzsche, Heidegger, Foucault, and Arendt, combined with the wisdom gained from her life experiences, allows the reader to grasp the essence of modernity. Some of her encounters are idiosyncratic, while others are shared with all who lived through the Holocaust or under totalitarian dictatorships.". "This view of modernity is an essential read for academics, researchers, and students of twentieth-century philosophy."--BOOK JACKET.
