New York. 1970. Viking Press. 1st American Edition. Very Good in Slightly Worn Dustjacket With A Small Piece Missing From the Top Back. 0670336718. Modern Masters Series. Edited by Frank Kermode. 146 pages. hardcover. . keywords: Philosophy Politics . FROM THE PUBLISHER - György Lukács (born György Bernát Löwinger; 13 April 1885 - 4 June 1971) was a Hungarian Marxist philosopher, aesthetician, literary historian, and critic. He was one of the founders of Western Marxism, an interpretive tradition that departed from the Marxist ideological orthodoxy of the Soviet Union. He developed the theory of reification, and contributed to Marxist theory with developments of Karl Marx's theory of class consciousness. He was also a philosopher of Leninism. He ideologically developed and organised Lenin's pragmatic revolutionary practices into the formal philosophy of vanguard-party revolution. As a literary critic Lukács was especially influential, because of his theoretical developments of realism and of the novel as a literary genre. In 1919, he was the Hungarian Minister of Culture of the government of the short-lived Hungarian Soviet Republic (MarchAugust 1919). Lukács has been described as the preeminent Marxist intellectual of the Stalinist era, though assessing his legacy can be difficult as Lukács seemed both to support Stalinism as the embodiment of Marxist thought, and yet also to champion a return to pre-Stalinist Marxism. inventory #22976 ISBN: 0670336718.
