Lukacs's road to God: The early criticism against its pre-Marxist background

by M. Holzman

Argues that Georg Lukacs's early critical works, "Soul and Form" and "The Theory of the Novel", constitute efforts to escape from the neo-Kantian epistemological dilemma by a leap of faith to messianic religion. Applies this argument to the work of other literary critics, including some of the American New Critics. Co-published with the Center for Advanced Research in Phenomenology.
