Description
Book SynopsisOffers a series of recontextualizations of Jacques Derrida's work by exploring the connections between Derrida and 7 major thinkers, including Hegel, Freud and Thomas Mann.
Trade Review"Peter Sloterdijk has a strong claim to being Germany's foremost public philosopher."
The Philosopher's Magazine "Derrida's debt to German thought is well-known, and he wrote many elegies. Here a contemporary German thinker returns the compliment. A fitting tribute to an important philosopher and, through a sequence of surprising juxtapositions, a powerful work of theory in its own right."
