Paperback. Condition: Fine. 1st. xxiii, 194 pages; 23 cm. Tight, clean copy. *** "This is the first intellectual biography of Guy Debord, prime mover of the Situationist International (1957-1972) and author of The Society of the Spectacle, the seminal book of the May 1968 uprising in France. Anselm Jappe offers a powerful corrective to the continual attempts to incorporate Debord's theoretical work into French theory. Jappe focuses, to the contrary, on Debord's debt to the Hegelian-Marxist tradition, to Karl Korsch and Georg Lukacs, and more generally to left-Marxist currents of council communism. His close reading of Debord's magnum opus is unique among the great flood of writing on the Situationists in recent decades. This PM reprint edition benefits from a new author's preface and a bibliographical update." - Publisher. Size: 8vo. Collectible.…

Hardcover. Condition: Good. LIGHT BROWN COVER, BLACK DESIGN FRONT, GOLD PRINT SPINE, LIGHT FADING AND WEAR. FORMER OWNERS LIBRARY NUMBER IN PENCIL ON TITLE PAGE. TWO PARTS, SEVEN CHAPTERS AND AN APPENDIX. FOR THE LOVER OF POPES, HISTORY, FABLES AND PROPHECIES. A VERY INTERESTING READ. NICE INTRODUCTION BY PLUMMER. PLUMMER WAS FELLOW AND TUTOR OF TRINITY COLLEGE, OXFORD. HENRY B. SMITH WAS A PROFESSOR IN UNION THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY, NY. Fable is a literary genre defined as a succinct fictional story, in prose or verse, that features animals, legendary creatures, plants, inanimate objects, or forces of nature that are anthropomorphized, and that illustrates or leads to a particular moral lesson (a "moral"), which may at the end be added explicitly as a concise maxim or saying. Johann Joseph Ignaz von Döllinger ( 28 February 1799 - 14 January 1890), also Doellinger in English, was a German theologian, Catholic priest and church historian who rejected the dogma of papal infallibility. Among his writings which proved controversial, his criticism of the papacy antagonized ultramontanes, yet his reverence for tradition annoyed the liberals.

With Gift Inscription From Both Of The Translators. Per Wikipedia, Joseph Arthur De Gobineau ( 1816 - 1882) Was A French Aristocrat Who Is Best Known For Helping Introduce Scientific Race Theory And "Racial Demography", And For Developing The Theory Of The Aryan Master Race And Nordicism. Known To His Contemporaries As A Novelist, Diplomat And Travel Writer, He Was An Elitist Who, In The Immediate Aftermath Of The Revolutions Of 1848, Wrote An Essay On The Inequality Of The Human Races. In It He Argued That Aristocrats Were Superior To Commoners And That Aristocrats Possessed More Aryan Genetic Traits Because Of Less Interbreeding With Inferior Races. Gobineau's Writings Were Quickly Praised By White Supremacist, Pro-Slavery Americans Like Josiah C. Nott And Henry Hotze, Who Translated His Book Into English. They Omitted Around 1,000 Pages Of The Original Book, Including Those Parts That Negatively Described Americans As A Racially Mixed Population. Inspiring A Social Movement In Germany Named Gobinism, His Works Were Also Influential On Prominent Antisemites Like Richard Wagner, Wagner's Son-In-Law Houston Stewart Chamberlain, The Romanian Politician Professor A. C. Cuza, And Leaders Of The Nazi Party, Who Later Edited And Re-Published His Work. [The Full Wikipedia Entry Is Almost Unbelievably Appalling, As He Was A Full Blown And Precise Racist In Almost Every Word He Uttered And Every Action He Undertook, And Never Undertook Any Constructive Project In The Real World, Writing From His Own Imagined Interpretation Of Th World, But Served Aristocratic France In Many Diplomatic Posts For Decades Nevertheless].
