This has been on my to-read shelf for a while! I can't wait to see your review :)
This is a very insightful book. I don't go around looking for evidence of it, but recognize it when I come across it, for example, in 19th century French novels.
Did you finish reading this book? I have it on my to-read list because of your recommendation....but am anxiously awaiting a review from you....lol
One of my very favorites! Looking forward to seeing what you think.
I read this for a class - super compelling and completely changed the way I view world history. Can't wait to hear your thoughts!
Most of the academic texts, especially those foundational to certain theories in the humanities, really do use obscure and abstract language. It's not our fault as readers! Great review.

Thank you Christian for this compassionate response to my review! And thank you everyone else who commented for your energy around this book, def motivated me to keep reading it - I appreciate your patience as I took so long with this one. :)
Hope you enjoy it if/when you check it out! :)
