The third and final instalment of Julian Young's superb trilogy introducing German philosophy in the 20th century
This volume covers important thinkers such as Wilhelm Dilthey, Karl Jaspers, Martin Buber and Erich Fromm, with a chapter devoted to each of the eight philosophers and theologians
A fascinating introduction to intellectual figures who stood for liberal democracy against the totalitarianism in the Germany of their time but engaged different approaches--including existentialism, phenomenology and theology--to understand modernity.
