Modernism as a philosophical problem

on the dissatisfactions of European high culture

by Robert B. Pippin

Cover of Modernism as a philosophical problem

"Now in its second edition, Robert Pippin's Modernism as a Philosophical Problem presents a new interpretation of the negative and critical self-understanding characteristic of much European high culture since romanticism and especially since Nietzsche, and answers the question of why the issue of modernity became a philosophical problem in European tradition.". "This unique and engaging view of modernity is an essential read for students, academics, and researchers studying modernism, twentieth-century philosophy, social theory, and Hegel and German Idealism."--BOOK JACKET.
