内容简介

In this inspired book, the eminent Polish author Witold Gombrowicz reflects on seven great philosophers. He discusses Kant, Hegel, Schopenhauer, Kierkegaard, Sartre, and Heidegger in six "one-hour" essays, then allows Marx a short "fifteen-minute" piece."Brilliantly, savagely funny. . . . Gombrowicz is that rare writer in whom the weight of a powerful intellect is leavened by both linguistic daring and an infectious sense of whimsy."--Benjamin Paloff, "The Nation"" This book] is like the course in philosophy you wish you had taken."--David Lehman, "Bloomberg News""Vintage Gombrowicz: concise, sober, lucid, and radically agnostic."--Ewa Thompson, "Slavic and East European Journal""A must for every reader of Gombrowicz."--Denis Hollier, New York University
