Essential Marcuse Selected Writings of Philosopher and Social Critic Herbert Marcuse

"The Essential Marcuse provides an overview of Herbert Marcuse's four decades of political and philosophical criticism. An incredibly influential radical philosopher of the 1960s, Marcuse was also a major contributor to the development of the Frankfurt School of Theodor Adorno, Max Horkheimer, and Walter Benjamin." "The Essential Marcuse includes key essays from the 1930s on Karl Marx's early Manuscripts and Critical Theory, later philosophical writings on Sigmund Freud and existentialism, and political essays from the 1960s and 1970s on American imperialism and the technocratic threat of "one-dimensional society." Every essay illuminates a different aspect of Marcuse's complex thinking on the social and scholarly issues of his day while offering ways of considering the contemporary experience."--BOOK JACKET.Feenberg, Andrew is the author of 'Essential Marcuse Selected Writings of Philosopher and Social Critic Herbert Marcuse', published 2007 under ISBN 9780807014332 and ISBN 0807014338.
