• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Nikolai Chernyshevskii and Ayn Rand: Russian Nihilism Travels to America argues that the core commitments of the 1860's nihilism made their way to 20th century America via the thought of Ayn Rand. Nikolai Chernyshevskii's What is to Be Done? (1863) and Rand's Atlas Shrugged (1957) identify similar problems; identical theses propose to solve those problems.
