- Abstract
This article presents information on the book "Georg Lukács and His Generation, 1900-1918," by Mary Gluck. Mary Gluck had three incalculable advantages for writing an analytical social history of the intellectual life of Georg Lukács and his closest Hungarian associates during the decades before his affiliation with Communism. She knows Hungarian, she had full access to sources, informants, and fellow-specialists in Budapest, and she had the good idea of asking about the meanings of Lukács interests and activities at the time, instead of considering them teleologically, simply as way stations on a preordained road to Marx. She has used her advantages to sufficient effect to give us an informative and useful account of Lukács in the context of the intellectual affinity group known as the Sunday Circle during those years.
