Thinking the Twentieth Century
Tony Judt,Timothy Snyder
* Thinking the Twentieth Century is a major new history of modern intellectual life by the renowned author and historian Tony Judt.
* As a history of ideas, it is unconventional. The book was created in the last two years of Judt’s life as he faced a neurological disease, which left him paralyzed and physically unable to write: working with Yale historian Timothy Snyder, Tony Judt thus ‘talked’ the twentieth century. The result is an original and moving blend of intellectual history, personal reflection, and passionate debate spanning continents and generations. From fascism and communism to liberalism and social democracy, Judt reflects on the ironies and paradoxes of twentieth-century thought and the legacy left to us today. Thinking the Twentieth Century is a classic work of history and a heartfelt tribute to the life of the mind.
