The course of German philosophy in the twentieth century is one of the most exciting, diverse and controversial periods in the history of human thought. It is widely studied and its legacy hotly contested. In this outstanding introduction Julian Young explains and assesses the philosophical ideas and arguments of the principal philosophers of the period.
"Preceded by volumes covering Weber to Habermas and Lukács to Strauss,(published in 2018 and 2020) this third and final volume of Young's German Philosophy in the Twentieth Century examines eight philosophers and theologians who once were, but no longer are, central to the pressing philosophical debates of the 20th century. ... In company with the previous two volumes in the set, this insightful, well-written volume is an exciting guide through 20th-century German philosophy. Summing Up: Highly recommended. Upper-division undergraduates through faculty; general readers." - J. A. Fischel, CHOICE
