Next Reading Group Meeting (9/21)
Next up, Georg Simmel’s The Philosophy of Money. The money economy is a site of modernity.
Simone warns us not to read chapter 2 with care: Skim’s the word. In fact, the advice originates in Simmel, who instructs the reader to skim over chapter 2 (which is full of definitions and rather complex) and then start reading chapter 6, the last chapter of the ponderous book.
The links below lead to UVA Collab, where scans from Simmel’s books have been ordered by your reading group organizers.
