Cultural historians be aware!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
Pick's book is a fabulous exploration of the theme of "degeneration" in Europe leading up through the end of WWI, which is particularly useful for those with a literary or philosophical interest in modern thought. If you are looking for exacting research, in mode of traditional or exacting historiography, this book might leave you looking for more. However, what Pick lacks in depth and exactness he gains in producing a sense of the cultural discourse of "degeneration" in terms of a discursive, text-based inquiry.
