Crowds and Power by Elias Canetti
Crowds and Power is a revolutionary work in which Elias Canetti finds a new way of looking at human history and psychology.
Breathtaking in its range and erudition, it explores Shiite festivals and the English Civil war, the finger exercises of monkeys and the effects of inflation in Weimar Germany. In this study of the interplay of crowds, Canetti offers one of the most profound and startling portraits of the human condition.
In 1981, Elias Canetti (1905-1994) received the Nobel Prize in Literature. Crowds and Power, a monumental book of social theory, and three volumes of memoirs, The Tongue Let Free, The Fire in My Ear, and The Play of the Eyes, are among his works.
