Abstract
Abstract:The creation of an Anglophone Lukács involved major intellectuals and exerted a significant presence over the shifting identities and ideologies of key cultural and political currents in Britain and the United States. Drawing on the archive of Lukács's British publisher, Merlin Press, the article reconstructs the translation and reception of the oeuvrein the third quarter of the twentieth century. Analyzing the period through the prism of Lukács, this article reveals the sometimes surprising prominence of a figure who revealed the complexity of the relationship it was possible to have politically with Marxism and culturally with modernism.
