Marxist Modernism is a comprehensive yet concise and conversational introduction to the
Frankfurt School. It is also a new resource from one of the twentieth century’s most important
philosophers: Gillian Rose. Her 1979 lectures on the Frankfurt School explore the lives and
philosophies of a range of the school’s members and affiliates including Adorno Lukács
Brecht Bloch Benjamin and Horkheimer and outline the way each theorist developed Marx’s
theory of commodity fetishism into a Marxist theory of culture. Edited by Robert Lucas Scott
and James Gordon Finlayson
