The book delves into the social theories of modernity as articulated by Georg Simmel and Walter Benjamin, exploring their historical-sociological methodologies and concepts of history and society. It examines the impact of modern metropolises on individual subjectivity, the aestheticization of everyday life due to commodity culture, and the emergence of female culture as a counter to masculine dominance. The author also reflects on how contemporary globalization challenges the relevance of Simmel's and Benjamin's ideas, transforming the metropolis into an "endless city."
