Critique of Marcuse

Mattick Jr., Paul

Merlin Press

The writings collected in this volume encompass Lukacs' years of apprenticeship in Marxism. They include the most important documents of this period (1918-1930), in order to emphaszie to their experimental nature and not to suggest that they have any topical importance to current controversies about the true nature of Marxism. The writings assembled here do more than simply illuminate the stages of personal development; they also show the path taken by intellectual events generally.

EVERGLADES, home to staggering numbers of plants and animals, is to wetlands what Kilimanjaro is to mountains, the Amazon to rivers, or the Grand Canyon to cracks in the Earth. Like these iconic places, the Everglades is singular and sublime. Nothing remotely matches it. Once a continuous sheet of water covering the southern half of the Florida peninsula, less than half the original Everglades survived development. Now diminished and relatively desiccated, the Everglades persists, in the vivid words of author William deBuys, as a kind of inundated Kansas of water, grass, and muck, ending in the dense mangrove forests that edge the sea. Mary Peck grew up in Florida, barely an hour away from the Everglades but separated from the wetlands by air conditioning and pavement. Revisiting South Florida as an adult, she saw the Everglades for the first time. Her photographs combine with deBuys s account of the natural and political history of the Everglades to underline the tension between awe at the power of our experience in wild places today and the knowledge that those very places are being lost.

In the fall of 1960, during a three-month visit to Hungary, Arthur Kahn unsuccessfully asked his hosts to arrange a meeting with Gyorgy Lukacs, a persona non grata to the Communist regime. Kahn arranged to meet Lukacs on his own and proposed translating some Lukacs essays never before appearing in English. During the three years Kahn worked on the translations, he and Lukacs engaged in a voluminous correspondence, investigating Marxism as it applied to contemporary events like the Vietnam war. Extracts from this correspondence will be included in a forthcoming volume of Kahns' autobiography, The Education of a 20th Century Political Animal.
