Edited by Henry Hardy. With index.
¶ The British liberal thinker Isaiah Berlin (1909-1997) is considered one of the most important political philosophers of the 20th century. This book deals with utopianism, cultural history, relativism, fascism, romanticism and nationalism. "The essays together offer a fascinating archeology of the European spirit" - Axel Honneth.
