Paperback. Condition: New. Who exactly are the 'intellectuals'? This term is so widely used today that we forget that it is a recent invention, dating from the late nineteenth century.In Birth of the Intellectuals, the renowned historian and sociologist Christophe Charle shows that the term 'intellectuals' first appeared at the time of the Dreyfus Affair, and the neologism originally signified a cultural and political vanguard who dared to challenge the status quo. Yet the word, expected to disappear once the political crisis had dissolved, has somehow endured. At times it describes a social group, and at others a way of seeing the social world from the perspective of universal values that challenges established hierarchies.But why did intellectuals survive when the events that gave rise to this term had faded into the past? To answer this question, it is necessary to show how the crisis of the old representations, the unprecedented expansion of the intellectual professions and the vacuum left by the decline of the traditional ruling class created favourable conditions for the collective affirmation of 'intellectuals'. This also explains why the literary or academic avant garde traditionally reluctant to engage gradually reconciled themselves with political activists and developed new ways to intervene in the field of power outside of traditional political channels.Through a careful rereading of the petitions surrounding the Dreyfus Affair, Charle offers a radical reinterpretation of this crucial moment of European history and develops a new model for understanding the ways in which public intellectuals in France, Germany, Britain, and the United States have addressed politics ever since.

Rústica. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: Nuevo. 01. El desarrollo del sistema de enseñanza, la expansión de la producción bibliográfica y de la prensa, conducen en el siglo XIX al crecimiento constante del trabajo intelectual. Pronto, los intelectuales -profesores de enseñanza superior, periodistas, escritores- pasan a constituir un nuevo grupo social. Sin embargo, el concepto de intelectual, que surge en aquella época, no se halla vinculado únicamente a la condición social. En la vida cultural y política, los intelectuales asumen el papel de precursores del pensamiento, de revolucionarios, y también de vigilantes, y la diversidad de su compromiso los divide en diferentes campos. Christophe Charle estudia, por vez primera desde una perspectiva europea, la vida y el quehacer de los intelectuales y la gran diversidad de su actuación política nacional. La nueva colección Historia de Europa, preparada y editada inicialmente por S. Fischer Verlag (Alemania), invita al descubrimiento de Europa y ofrece, desde muy diferentes perspectivas, un nuevo panorama histórico europeo desde la Antigüedad hasta el presente. Los distintos volúmenes, sucintos y de fácil lectura, se dirigen a un público amplio, que valore tanto una información objetiva como una clara exposición. LIBRO.
