The book discusses Hermann Broch’s theoretical writings from the 1930’s – a decisive phase between his early philosophical writings on the theory of values and his writings on mass hysteria during his exile. Broch’s cultural criticism and his reflections on the very nature of literature are being focused as independent objects of knowledge for the first time in philological research tradition
