Georg Simmel predicted that he would have no followers after his death. However, he is now widely recognized as the father of the sociology of modernity. His ideas on the metropolis, consumer culture, social space and aesthetics are at the crux of contemporary debate in sociology. This collection brings together the essential secondary literature on Simmel. It is selected and edited by David Frisby and what emerges is a concise yet comprehensive view of this prescient and penetrating sociologist. The volumes should be of interest to graduate students and anyone with a serious interest in Simmel.
