Gleichsam im Schatten seiner massenmedialen Präsenz baut Peter Sloterdijk seit nunmehr einem Vierteljahrhundert an einem philosophischen Werk, das heute – weit davon entfernt, abgeschlossen zu sein – in Umrissen als komplexes Ganzes sichtbar zu werden beginnt. Der Band versammelt erstmals Essays herausragender Intellektueller aus dem deutschsprachigen und internationalen Raum, die sich von Sloterdijks philosophischer Erhellung unserer Gegenwart inspiriert zeigen und von den unterschiedlichsten disziplinären und persönlichen Blickwinkeln aus theoretische Tangenten an sein Werk anlegen. Entsprechend der Breite des Sloterdijkschen Oevres beschäftigen sich die Autoren mit philosophischen, politolo- gischen, sozio- und psychologischen sowie gegenwartsdiagnostischen Fragestellungen und nehmen dabei auf sämtliche Hauptwerke des Philosophen Bezug: von der 'Kritik der zynischen Vernunft' (1983) über die Sphären-Triologie (1998-2004) und 'Im Weltinnenraum des Kapitals' (2005) bis hin zu 'Zorn und Zeit' (2006) sowie dem 2009 erscheinenden Buch über Anthropotechnik 'Du mußt dein Leben ändern'. Essays mit strikter Referenz auf Peter Sloterdijk sind ebenso vertreten wie Texte, die aufgrund seiner Anregungen an Sachthemen weiterdenken.

Iconoclastic and provocative, Sloterdijk is the most exciting and controversial German philosopher to appear on the world scene since Nietzsche and Heidegger. Like Nietzsche, Sloterdijk is convinced that contemporary philosophers have to think dangerously and allow themselves to be "kidnapped" by contemporary "hypercomplexities," forsaking old humanistic and national worldviews for a wider horizon, at once ecological and global. -- In Neither Sun nor Death, Sloterdijk answers questions posed by German writer Hans-Jürgen Heinrichs about world mobilization, fascism and post-humanism, technological catastrophes, media contagion and self-intoxication, and the theory of globalization. -- Neither Sun nor Death is the best available introduction to his philosophical itinerary. It reveals an extraordinary philosopher as much at ease with current French Theory as with Kant, Heidegger and Indian mystic Osho Rajneesh, whom he met during his seven-year sojourn in India in the 1970's, studying Eastern philosophy. --Book Jacket. Peter Sloterdijk first became known in this country for his late 1980's Critique of Cynical Reason, which confronted headlong the "enlightened false consciousness" of Habermasian critical theory. Since then he has published a wide range of books, including Spheres, his magnum opus, a three-volume archeology of the human attempt to dwell within spaces, from womb to globe: Bubbles, 1998; Globes, 1999; Foam, 2004, all forthcoming from Semiotext(e). --

In recent years, Peter Sloterdijk has become one of Germany's most influential thinkers. His diverse body of work includes a Heideggerian project to think 'space and time,' a Diogenes-inspired affirmation of the body, and a Deleuzian ontology of network-spheres. This highly accessible collection of essays brings together a team of internationally renowned scholars, including Sjoerd van Tuinen, Rudi Laermans, Peter Weibel, and Bruno Latour, to provide a series of critical reflections on Sloterdijk's oeuvre.
