Bernard Yack sets out to explore and understand the emergence of a shared dissatisfaction among a significant group of European philosophers and social critics, including Rousseau, Schiller, the young Hegel, Marx, and Nietzsche. Yack argues that despite their profound disagreements, these individuals shared innovative ideas about human freedom and history, which gave their discontent its unique breadth and intensity.
