Stanislaw Brzozowski and the Polish Beginnings of "WesternMarxism"

New York: Clarendon/Oxford University Press, 1989, viii, 349
«The book introduces English-speaking reader to the thought of Stanislaw Brzozowski (1878-1911), a Polish philosopher and literary critic who deserves to be seen as an important forerunner of what is now called "Western Marxism." Brzozowski's case shows that the rejection of dialectical materialism (i.e., the dialectics of nature), and the new account of historical materialism, both associated with Lukács and Gramsci, originated in fact not in the 1920s but in the first decade of the century, as a challenge not to Soviet Marxism, then nonexistent, but to the orthodox Marxism of the Second International».
