Norbert Elias has been described as a great sociologist and over
recent years there has been a steady upsurge of interest in his
work. Yet despite the fact that he was active for nearly sixty
years from the 1920s to the 1960s it was only in the 1980s that
English translations of his works became widely available and the
importance of his contribution to the sociological endeavour was
fully recognised in the English speaking world. This book provides
a comprehensive and accessible introduction to the key aspects of
Elias's work and then applies an Eliasian approach to key topics in
contemporary sociology such as race, class, gender, religion,
epistemology and nationalism. The editors have brought together a
distinguished group of international sociologists and this book
will not only change the course of Elias studies but be a valuable
resource for both students and scholars alike.
