Description

Peter Sloterdijk's final volume in his celebrated Spheres trilogy presents a philosophical theory of our contemporary era, offering a view of life through a multifocal lens. In "Foams", Sloterdijk explores the phenomenology of spatial plurality, examining how the bubbles that form in our duality bind together to create what sociological tradition calls "society". This final volume builds upon the anthropological concept of the "Sphere" and offers a corrective answer to Martin Heidegger's Being and Time. Through his theory of "plural spherology", Sloterdijk shifts the question of who we are to a more fundamental question of where we are, leading to the discovery of the foam city. Foams can be read on its own or in relation to the rest of the trilogy, which presents a theology without a God - a spatial theology that requires no God.
