Question
Camille Paglia’s Sexual Personae criticizes a concept formulated by this thinker as being “the numinous aura around a narcissistic personality.” That concept formulated by this thinker transitions into institutional types through “routinization.” This thinker defined abstract constructs that order reality as “ideal types” in his essay collection The Methodology of the Social Sciences. The framework of social action theory was applied to an English translation of this thinker by Talcott Parsons. This thinker divided legitimate leadership into traditional, charismatic, and rational-legal authority in his lecture “Politics as a Vocation.” In one book, this thinker claimed that the title group’s “calling” to profit created an “iron cage” of rationality. For 10 points, name this German sociologist who wrote The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism. ■END■
