Scope and Contents
This book is considered "the first serious intellectual biography of Guy Debord, prime mover of the Situationist International (1957-1972) and the author of 'The Society of the Spectacle,' perhaps the seminal book of May 1968 in France...Jappe's book offers a lively account of the theory and practice of this 'last avant garde' on its way from radical bohemianism to revolutionary theory. It also deals with Debord's post-Situationist work and with his films, which are at present largely inaccessible" -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
