Marxism Against the Tide of Modernity: Uniting the Promethean and Romantic (with Donald from Cosmonaut)

from The Regrettable Century · host Chris, Jason, and Donald

The birth pangs of the bourgeois epoch included a multi faceted opposition in the form of romanticism. This reaction lauded humanity's lost connection to the natural world, to spirituality, and to a forgotten sense of communal life. While it is easy to point out the romantic strain in rightist political ideologies, we often overlook the one that has existed in Marxism since the beginning. Löwy, Michael, and Robert Sayre.
