About the Class
The course examines the revolutionary transformation of European society and culture in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries from the perspective of that culture's most radical and influential critics--Karl Marx and Friedrich Nietzsche. Most of the term will be devoted to an intensive analysis of the content and context of Marx's and Nietzsche's major writings. The course concludes with a discussion of selected groups of Marxists and Nietzscheans who have sustained and transformed the legacy of the great nineteenth century critics in the twentieth century.
