Description
Summary:<p>The book of the famous Russian sociologist L.G. Ionin about Max Weber attracts attention with its unusualness. The review describes various facets of its unusual genre, highlights and examines the levels of the author's consideration of his subject — the personality of an outstanding Western sociologist. It is concluded that the author applied the Freudian methodology to explain the twists and turns in the fate of M. Weber, since they are closely related to the intimate side of his life. The creative approach of L.G. Ionin to understand the hero of his “intellectual novel” in the context of his classic sociological doctrine is analyzed. In conclusion, the reviewer dares to make his own assumptions about what Max Weber's “drama of life” consisted of.</p>
