Norbert Elias on civilization
Treatises on morality in politics and religion in the West in the latter half of the 20th century. Some of it was over my head as I don't have the classical education to appreciate many of his references. But I did appreciate what I took time to read carefully and understand, particularly the later essays concerning ideology and politics, the validity of Christian tradition and of democracy in an increasingly technological world, and the methods and effects of totalitarianism upon its citizens. Not an easy read but a rewarding one.
