520 _aThis volume employs historicism as a lens to explore the connections between disciplines and intellectual traditions that are typically studied in isolation. It examines how generations of sociologists, theologians, and historians sought to avoid the pitfalls of historicism and delves into the emotional responses—such as anxiety, anger, and concern—that the term evoked. By offering fresh interpretations of classic thinkers like Friedrich Meinecke, Karl Löwith, and Leo Strauss, the volume highlights how historicism evolved, acquiring new meanings, connotations, and emotional weight as it moved through different times and places.
