The History of Concepts as a History of Ideas
The History of Concepts as a History of Ideas

Summary/Abstract: What do Paul de Man, Matei Călinescu and Antoine Compagnon have in common? They have all studied modernity and have published defining critical systems, in different times, that no one could ignore. But what is more interesting than the concepts that they provided was the evident or subterranean dialogues carried out between their ideas. Teodora Dumitru gives us an introduction into the history of ideas on modernity and anti-modernity, in the mirage of old and new modernisms, all explained in a perfectly balanced, sober and elegant style. For the specialized researchers in the history of modernity, the critical archeology of Teodora Dumitru is a must-read.
