This is the second volume of Friedell's monumental A Cultural History of the Modern Age. A key figure in the fl owering of Viennese culture between the two world wars, this three volume work is considered his masterpiece. Th e centuries covered in this second volume mark the victory of the scientifi c mind: in nature-research, language-research, politics, economics, war, even morality, poetry, and religion. All systems of thought produced in this century, either begin with the scientifi coutlook as their foundation or regard it as their highest and fi nal goal.
