Simmel
Vendor: Abebooks.com Price: 21.44 $Georg Simmel, as well as being a major philosopher, is one of the founding figures of sociology whose work is comparable in importance to that of Marx, Weber, and Durkheim. His writings on money, metropolises, and modernity have inspired generations of thinkers for over a century. In this book, leading expert Thomas Kemple clearly and accessibly introduces Simmel’s sociological and philosophical work, ranging from his masterpiece The Philosophy of Money to his famous essays ‘The Metropolis and Mental Life’ and ‘Fashion’ and beyond. The author situates his writings within his social and intellectual circles and analyses them in light of current debates surrounding urban sociology and social networks, phenomenology and metaphysics, cultural criticism and the study of everyday life. He brings Simmel’s most famous works into conversation with others that have received less attention, such as his writings on nature, art, religion, and sexuality. Through diagrams, everyday examples, and expositions of the work of his predecessors and contemporaries, and successors, this highly readable book captures the innovative spirit of Simmel’s unique method of thinking about cultural objects and his original style of writing about social life. Commemorating the 100th anniversary of Simmel’s death, it will be the leading guide to Simmel’s thought for generations of students and scholars.

Simmel and Since
Vendor: Abebooks.com Price: 32.94 $The 1980s have witnessed a steady growth of interest in the social theory of Georg Simmel. For long a neglected figure in sociology, Simmel is now recognized as an extremely shrewd and subtle commentator on the distinctive qualities of modern life. "Simmel and Since" ranges from accounts of key concepts in Simmel's theory such as that of "society" and his neglected contribution to social psychology, to aspects of his theory of modernity and his place in contemporary debates on postmodernity. The main body of the text examines aspects of Simmel's social theory of modernity, its context, its economic aspects, and its relevance for present debates on the metropolis, social space, leisure, aesthetics and postmodernity. All of the chapters are grounded in a study of original sources.

Georg Simmel and Avant-Garde Sociology
Vendor: Abebooks.com Price: 53.04 $These prophetic words, written shortly before Simmel's death in 1918, have held true to the present day. His immense cultural capital was distributed to many heirs, but after his death there remained little trace of where it came from. This work resuscitates Simmel's reputation among his contemporaries as "the philosopher of the avant-garde" by revealing the cultural origins of his sociological thought. Naturalism, socialism, and Nietzsche contributed to the formulation of a social theory that galvanized Simmel's reputation as the greatest social critic of Wilhelmine Germany.From the 1880s to 1914, Simmel was a philosopher at Berlin University. Within academic circles, he was most widely recognized as a founding father of the discipline of sociology. Indeed, his contributions to modern sociology were extensive. Far less well known today are Simmel's unparalleled contributions to the aesthetic and political counterculture.Ralph Leck examines Simmel's impact upon significant movements of the period: radical feminism, literary Expressionism, the homosexual rights movement, the antiwar activist movement, and Western Marxism. As a result of Leck's research, Simmel emerges for the first time as a key figure in the intellectual history of the European counterculture. Simmel's wide-ranging social theories-dealing with such themes as feminism, alienation, money culture, social hierarchy, and fashion-are still relevant to current debates about gender, sociological, cultural, and political theory.

Georg Simmel on Individuality and Social Forms (Heritage of Sociology Series)
Vendor: Abebooks.com Price: 24.26 $"Of those who created the intellectual capital used to launch the enterprise of professional sociology, Georg Simmel was perhaps the most original and fecund. In search of a subject matter for sociology that would distinguish it from all other social sciences and humanistic disciplines, he charted a new field for discovery and proceeded to explore a world of novel topics in works that have guided and anticipated the thinking of generations of sociologists. Such distinctive concepts of contemporary sociology as social distance, marginality, urbanism as a way of life, role-playing, social behavior as exchange, conflict as an integrating process, dyadic encounter, circular interaction, reference groups as perspectives, and sociological ambivalence embody ideas which Simmel adumbrated more than six decades ago."—Donald N. Levine Half of the material included in this edition of Simmel's writings represents new translations. This includes Simmel's important, lengthy, and previously untranslated "Group Expansion and Development of Individuality," as well as three selections from his most neglected work, Philosophy of Money; in addition, the introduction to Probleme der Geschichtsphilosophie, chapter one of the Lebensanschauung, and three essays are translated for the first time.
