Summary: Inwardness as a Category for Revolutionary Action
Comment: In Soul and Forms Lukacs is writing on the destruction of forms and stressing subjectivity as a category to be rescued from abuse by vulgar marxists. Created in the period of 1907 through 1910,a phase often referred to as his 'romantic anti captilist period' Georg Lukacs writes in a moving and beautiful melancholicic voice on the tragedy rendered unto the soul by the events of the period. His ideas are the result of deep personal reflection based upon the tragic events in his own life the death of his love as both Irma Seidler and Leo Popper his twin touchstones pass in a period of less then one year.Lukacs investigates himself as a type and uses his personal problems as being enblamatic for the suffering and death of a way of being, the greatness of the book is a brilliance and poetic caste of mind that is at the same time trying to use highly subjective events to gain and show a small mastery over certain philosophical problematics. Thiswork represents a kind of love of philosophy/ philosophical love it is agreat work for many reaosn but one is the way that life and thought are intertwined in each sentence it uses subjectivity as an index on truth.
