Title: Modernism as a Philosophical Problem. On the Dissatisfactions of European High Culture
Description: Basil Blackwell, 1991. Paperback. Pp: 218. Since the 19th century European culture has been lagely concerned with the idea of modernity. This book attempts centres on the philosophical contribution to this aspect of culture. It covers the dissatisfactions voiced in the work of Nietzsche, Hegel and Heidegger, as well as the more recent arguments of Adorno, Habermas and Rorty. The author argues against the Nietzschean and Heideggerean claims about a nihilistic end to the modern tradition, and defends Hegel's idea about the nature and potential completion of modernity.
