While doing some more digging on Lukacs I discovered this excellent little essay by Ian Birchall. It’s an attempt to evaluate Lukacs’ entire career, and while I don’t agree with everything in it (Lukacs deserves far more credit for his struggle against Stalinist aesthetics), it’s a great introduction to his work as a whole.
