Alienation of Modern Man by Fritz Pappenheim

This intriguing work deals with the plight of the alienated individual, estranged from humanity and the surrounding world. It examines such questions as: Why do writers like Kafka, Thomas Wolfe, Rilke, and the existential philosophers, who portray the individual as a stranger in the world, have such a strong appeal? Is estrangement limited to individual cases or has it become a universal fate? Is alienation a consequence of the triumph of the machine? Is it characteristic of the human condition, or is it a specific development of modern society? Should humanity resign itself to alienation, or can it be overcome, conquered?
