Preview — On Individuality and Social Forms by Georg Simmel
'Of those who created the intellectual capital used to launch the enterprise of professional sociology, Georg Simmel was perhaps the most original and fecund. In search of a subject matter for sociology that would distinguish it from all other social sciences and humanistic disciplines, he charted a new field for discovery and proceeded to explore a world of novel topics i...more

It’s a real shame that such a genius who profoundly affected more popular sociologists like Max Weber and Emile Durkheim doesn’t even have a review here.
Simmel is one of the most fascinating thinkers I’ve ever read, taking a neo-Kantian approach to sociological study and the occasional digression into German idealist philosophy. With 24 essays in this collection on a wide variety of subjects, it’s difficult to pinpoint a general idea within the text, but Simmel has four basic presuppositions th...more

ترجمه اش چنگی به دل نمی زند و خواننده را گیج می کند اما زیمل آن قدر نبوغ آمیز و دقیق بحث فرم های اجتماعی را با نمونه های عملی چون خسیس و ولخرج ، غریبه ، مد ، عشق افلاطونی و عشق مدرن و غیره شرح میدهد که به نظر تنها مارکس را می توان همتای او در نظریات جامعه شناسی دوران دانست و انگار این دو از آینده ی دور آمده اند. خوشبختانه فصل بسیار مهم کلانشهر و حیات ذهنی را یوسف اباذری با ترجمه قابل قبولی در ارغنون چاپ کرده است

I've only read The Metropolis and Mental Life out of this collection, but it's deeply impressive. One of the founding works of urban studies.

Georg Simmel was a major German sociologist, philosopher, and critic.
Simmel was one of the first generation of German sociologists: his neo-Kantian approach laid the foundations for sociological antipositivism, asking 'What is society?' in a direct allusion to Kant's question 'What is nature?', presenting pioneering analyses of social individuality and fragmentation.

Georg Simmel was a major German sociologist, philosopher, and critic.
Simmel was one of the first generation of German sociologists: his neo-Kantian approach laid the foundations for sociological antipositivism, asking 'What is society?' in a direct allusion to Kant's question 'What is nature?', presenting pioneering analyses of social individuality and fragmentation. For Simmel, culture referred to 'the cultivation of individuals through the agency of external forms which have been objectified in the course of history'. Simmel discussed social and cultural phenomena in terms of 'forms' and 'contents' with a transient relationship; form becoming content, and vice versa, dependent on the context. In this sense he was a forerunner to structura...more

“By my existence I am nothing more than an empty place, an outline,that is reserved within being in general. Given with it, though, is the duty to fill in this empty place. That is my life.”

“The deepest problems of modern life derive from the claim of the individual to preserve the autonomy and individuality of his existence in the face of overwhelming social forces, of historical heritage, of external culture, and of the technique of life.”

“The calculative exactness of practical life which the money economy has brought about corresponds to the ideal of natural science: to transform the world by mathematical formulas. Only money economy has filled the days of so many people with weighing, calculating, with numerical determinations, with a reduction of qualitative values to quantitative ones.”
