KlappentextHeretical Quodlibets is an exercise in thinking that takes its reader on a wild journey through cultural and philosophical history, spanning the classical writings of ancient Greece and Rome, through the scholarship of the Middle Ages and the revolution in arts and thinking that was the Renaissance, up to works of the twentieth century. The author makes no pretensions to being correct in his often radical conclusions (which he bases on far-ranging connections between events, concepts, and hypotheses, irreverently playing with ideas, undermining the commonly received and rediscovering the forgotten). "If the reader, after perusing some of the texts in this book, says that he's never read a bigger bunch of nonsense in his life, that would be okay. And if, despite this, he were to pick up this book again, that would mean that in fact I didn't write it only for myself."
