This book takes the form of intellectual histories of eight major
representative figures of the twentieth century, who inherited and
responded to the spiritual problematic left by Nietzsche. With each
figure offering very different ethical and spiritual positions, all
shed light on what we mean when we talk confusedly around the
topics of politics and religion. With portraits of Max Weber, Georg
Lukacs, T.S. Eliot, W.H. Auden, Sigmund Freud, Carl Jung, George
Orwell and Hannah Arendt, the author explores the "latent" content
of their worldview-the moral (or immoral) intention of their
intellectual project. In each of the case studies, the aim is to
move toward an understanding of their ultimate values, to get at
their particular picture of the soul, as well as the implications
of this vision for religion and politics. As such, The Politics of
the Soul will appeal to scholars of sociology and social theory,
religion, philosophy, political theory and cultural studies.
