Henri Lefebvre was at the center on intellectual life in Paris for almost 80 years. He was involved with Andr<'e> Breton's surrealism as a student, with the young Sartre and the formation of existentialism, and in later years with Guy Debord's situationists and the activists of the 1960s and 1970s. This study provides a guide to his work, covering many previously untranslated and unpublished works and correspondence. Shields is associate professor and director of the Institute for Interdisciplinary Studies at Carleton University, Canada. Cloth edition (0-93694), $75. Annotation c.
