The history of European thought offers a breathtaking panorama. A single life is usually not sufficient to gain an overview of it. Ludwig Marcuse has compiled a reader in three volumes, which combines selected sample passages of the great European thinkers with introductory words on their lives and works. The result is an introduction to the pantheon of European thinking – and a standard work for every age. Volume I : Book of Job, Diogenes Laertius, Herodotus, Thucydides, Plato, Aristotle, Cicero, Caesar, Sallustius, Ovid, Plutarch, Tacitus, Marcus Aurelius, and others Volume II : Aurelius Augustinus, Hildegard of Bingen, Dante, Thomas More, Ignatius of Loyola, Friedrich Schiller, Novalis, Johann Wolfgang Goethe, Ludwig Börne, and others Volume III : Karl Marx, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Georg Büchner, Richard Wagner, Gottfried Keller, Søren Kierkegaard, Gustave Flaubert, Karl Kraus, Oswald Spengler, Sigmund Freud, Karl Jaspers, Thomas Mann, and others
»Philosophy is much too important to be hidden and encrusted in layers of dust in institutes and institutions far from the noise of the streets. Where do we find the normative philosopher, who, as Ludwig Marcuse once did, reflects on what ›a good life‹ really is?«Der Spiegel
»After Schopenhauer and Nietzsche, Ludwig Marcuse is the best writer among the German philosophers, which did as much harm to his reputation as it did to his two predecessors.«Die Zeit
