The Library of Modern Thinkers is a series of authoritative introductions to the thought of important intellectual figures. Critical yet accessible, they will instruct anyone seeking to understand the central questions of our time. Few political philosophers of the twentieth century can lay claim to as much original brilliance as can Eric Voegelin (1901-1985), the Austrian-born emigre who taught for most of his career at Louisiana State University. Armed with amazingly broad learning in numerous ancient and modern languages, Voegelin's philosophical project was to restore order in human souls and human societies in a century of civilizational catastrophe. Readers intimidated or puzzled by Voegelin's often daunting prose will find Federici's volume an invaluable guide to one of the twentieth century's most imposing -- and most impressive -- philosophical minds.
