Using the historical-materialist method to unravel the promise and
limits of critical practice since the Revolutionary Age, John E.
O'Brien investigates the problems and prospects of cultural
criticism for the 21st century through absorbing studies of the
contested perspectives of Voltaire, Friedrich Schiller, Jean
Baudrillard, Michel Foucault, Terry Eagleton and Hayden White.
O'Brien's investigation of resistance in America and Europe
challenges the bourgeois philosophy of history, pointing to the
urgency of critique as mode of analysis and intervention.
