    El autor retoma las narraciones de Wolf Lepeniessobre los papeles desempeñados por los intelectuales en la historia de la Europa contemporánea, ubicándolas en el interior de la oposición que ha estructurado el pensamiento del sociólogo en el último cuarto del siglo XX, por lo menos: el de la melancolíay la utopía. Tal par no sólo nos permite ver el pasado de los intelectuales en el Oeste y en el Leste europeos después de los acontecimientos de 1989 (la caída del Muro de Berlín y la extinción del Estado soviético) desde una perspectiva distinta (de la que valora el compromiso político del intelectual, por ejemplo), pero también nos permite examinar cuidadosamente el lugar del intelectual en el mundo de hoy, tras la caída de las dos grandes utopías de la modernidad: la utopía comunista de los fines y la utopía capitalista de los medios

    The author revisits Wolf Lepenies' narratives on the roles played by intellectuals in the history of contemporary Europe, placing them within an opposition that has structured the sociologist’s thinking in the last quarter of the twentieth century or so: that of melancholy and utopia. Such a pair not only allows us to see the past of intellectuals in Western and Eastern Europe after the events of 1989 (the downfall of the Berlin Wall and the extinction of the Soviet state) from a different perspective (from the one that values the political engagement of the intellectual, for instance), but also allows us to look carefully at the intellectual’s place in today’s world, after the downfall of the two great utopias of modernity: the communist utopia of ends and the capitalist utopia of means

    O autor revisita as narrativas de Wolf Lepenies sobre os papeis desempenhados pelos intelectuais na história da Europa contemporânea, situando-as no interior de uma oposição que estruturou o pensamento do sociólogo nos últimos vinte e cinco anos do século XX, pelo menos: a da melancolia e utopia. Tal par não apenas no permite ver o passado dos intelectuais no Oeste e no Leste europeus após os acontecimentos de 1989 (a queda do Muro de Berlim e a extinção do Estado soviético) de uma perspectiva distinta (daquela que valoriza o engajamento político do intelectual, por exemplo), mas também nos permite examinar cuidadosamente o lugar do intelectual no mundo de hoje, após a queda das duas grandes utopias da modernidade: a utopia comunista do fins e a utopia capitalista dos meios.
