In recent times, especially under the influence of postmodernism,
culture has often been construed as a critique of modernity. This
wide-ranging and comprehensive collection of readings shows that
such issues have always been at the centre of thought about the
relationship between culture and civilization The readings are
divided into three sections, linking the civilization debate to
political theory, to the cultural debate and to the sociology and
anthropology. The substantial extracts included give students a
rare chance to engage at length with classic texts to appreciate
the nature of the battle between the Enlightenment and its critics
which has shaped current thought. Classical Readings on Culture and
Civilisation presents essays from Immanuel Kant, Adam Ferguson,
Thomas Jefferson, Alexis de Tocqueville, Friedrich von Schiller,
Friedrich Nietzche, Georg Simmel, Thomas Mann, Sigmund Freud, Emile
Durkheim, Marcel Mauss, Lucien Febvre, Alfred Weber, Robert E. Park
and Norbert Elias.
