Nicolas Mahler's little comic history of philosophy from Plato to Foucault. Philosophy is incomprehensible, boring, and humorless? Think again! Only someone who hasn't yet encountered Nicolas Mahler's equally clever and subtly funny comic history of philosophy could say that. Here, he tells previously unknown scenes from the lives of the 22 most famous philosophers: We experience party fun with Kant, visit an art exhibition with Hegel, shop at the supermarket with Marx, and go camping with Nietzsche, catch a movie with Deleuze, and celebrate a dream wedding with Simone de Beauvoir. And even if none of this actually happened, we learn more about the life, thoughts, and feelings of each philosopher than ever before - and how rarely we have laughed about the absurdity of our human existence.
