Basel in the Age of Burckhardt - A Study in Unseasonable Ideas

Klappentext This remarkable history tells the story of the independent city-republic of Basel in the nineteenth century! and of four major thinkers who shaped its intellectual history: the historian Jacob Burckhardt! the philologist and anthropologist Johann Jacob Bachofen! the theologian Franz Overbeck! and the philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche. Zusammenfassung This work tells the story of 19th century Basel! this seemingly anachronistic hybrid of commercialism and classical republicanism! and of four thinkers who retreated there: Jacob Burckhardt! Johann Jakob Bachofen! Franz Overbeck and Nietzsche. It gives an analytical biography of these figures.
