Beschreibung
"John and Anna Rist write with authority and ennui about nothing less than the loss of the foundational culture of the West. The authors characterise this culture as the 'original tradition', viewing its erosion as one which has led to anxiety about the entire value of Western thought. The causes of the disintegration are discussed with an intensity rare in academe. Critics of modernity ordinarily concentrate on the Enlightenment and the book certainly offers deep analysis of Enlightenment thought. "--
