Here he offers a general approach to the problems of philosophy, of literary criticism, and of the relationship between thought and action in human society.","brand":"Verso","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43412282343679,"sku":"9781781689769","price":100.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/9781781689769_s600x595.jpg?v=1782146416","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/de\/products\/9781781689769","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
