This book provides a unique overview of and introduction to the work of the German psychologist and philosopher Ludwig Klages (1872-1956), an astonishing figure in the history of German ideas.
'Bishop's skill as a historian shines here, for the level of detail he provides is truly exceptional, especially insofar as it concerns Klages's intellectual development' (Configurations)
'Beautiful and accessible ? For anyone who seriously studies nineteenth and twentieth-century continental philosophy today, this introduction to Klages is indispensable' (British Journal for the History of Philosophy)
'With this concise and clearly-written book, [Bishop] ingeniously succeeds in opening a door and offering access to an important, complex, and most influential ? yet almost forgotten ? thinker of the 20th century' (International Journal of Jungian Studies)
