520			_aThe first ever general study of intellectual or cultural history to be undertaken on such a broad scale, this book raises important new questions in the field of historical method. Professor Lowe describes how there have been at least two fundamental transformations in this history - one is the transition from estate society to class society to class society, the other in our own era, with the advent of electronic media. The analysis of this will give us a new perspective not only on our past, but also on our present cultural situation. This sweeping examination of communications and the structure of human senses and thought over five distinct periods in Western culture presents a new methodology for the history of perception. This is based on the philosophic insights of phenomenology and Marxism, but Professor Lowe is alive to the failings of those schools of thought and his work reaches out into entirely new areas.
