Lions (SB-The German List) Book Information:

For distinguished philosopher Hans Blumenberg, lions were a life-long obsession. Lions, translated by K ri Driscoll, collects thirty-two of Blumenberg s philosophical vignettes to reveal that the figure of the lion unites two of his other great preoccupations: metaphors and anecdotes as non-philosophical forms of knowledge. Each of these short texts, sparkling with erudition and humor, is devoted to a peculiar leonine presence or, in many cases, absence in literature, art, philosophy, religion and politics. From Ecclesiastes to the New Testament Apocrypha, D rer to Henri Rousseau, Aesop and La Fontaine to Rilke and Thomas Mann, the extraordinary breadth of Blumenberg s knowledge and intellectual curiosity is on full display. Lions has much to offer readers, both those already familiar with Blumenberg s oeuvre and newcomers looking for an introduction to the thought of one of Germany s most important post-war philosophers.
