Herbert Marcuse - Selected Works (16 books)

A collection of 16 books by the distinguished German social and political theorist and philosopher Herbert Marcuse (1898-1979).

Born in Berlin, Marcuse became a prominent figure in the Frankfurt-based Institute for Social Research -- what later became known as the Frankfurt School of critical theory. Active in the United States after 1934, his intellectual concerns were the dehumanizing effects of capitalism and modern technology.

In the late 1960s and early 1970s he became known as the preeminent theorist of the New Left and the student movements of Germany, France, and the USA. Celebrated by some as the "Father of the New Left," his best known works include Reason and Revolution (1940), a dialectical study of Hegel and Marx, and One-Dimensional Man (1964). His Marxist scholarship inspired many radical intellectuals and political activists in the 1960s and '70s, both in the U.S. and internationally.
