What Dominique Pagani says

What Dominique Pagani mainly takes from Lukács is The Destruction of Reason. He sees in it an account of the bourgeoisie's irrationalist turn, from Schelling to Heidegger, which traces Nazi ideology back to German Romanticism and makes 1848 the pivot of the history of thought12. He often recommends the article "Hegel and German Fascism", which lists the philosophers of the Nazi regime who opposed the Enlightenment, Weimar humanism and French rationality34. He brings Lukács and Clouscard together on the bourgeois refusal to go beyond Kant5. He also has reservations: Lukács does not go far enough on Being and Time6, his thesis that bourgeois art has declined since 1848 is hard to defend in general form, and The Young Hegel, which brought out Hegel's studies of political economy, remains tied to the thesis that Hegel turned conservative7. Finally, he regards him as the most important of the Marxist aestheticians.
