Klappentext zu „Politics and the Imagination “
"These terrific essays confirm Raymond Geuss's status as one of the most thoughtful, honest, careful, original, and politically engaged philosophers of our time. Displaying Geuss's rich erudition in European languages, history, literature, art, and music, and his unique capacity to use philosophy to illuminate current political conundrums, these essays are attuned both to the most delicate dimensions of human experience and subjectivity and the cruder phenomena of war, planetary collapse, party politics, and bourgeois complacency. This is a rich and wonderful book."--Wendy Brown, University of California, Berkeley"These essays are elegant and erudite, as well as unfailingly insightful and interesting. A very fine collection."--Daniel Brudney, University of Chicago

Rezension zu „Politics and the Imagination “
"[A] terrific collection... Philosophy fails, writes Geuss, mostly by being unhistorical; he makes the case for understanding politics only in a richly articulated historical context."--Brendan Boyle, BookForum
