TV Show, Im Glasshaus: Das Philosposche Quartett

grammar
editSomeone may want to double check, but this article is pretty much grammatically set. One thing I need to check on is whether or not "instead" is a conjunctive adverb. blah blah blah.--Smallwhitelight 22:41, 31 May 2005 (UTC)

Why does the article editorialize so much?
editIs it a copy-paste job from somewhere?71.16.116.2 (talk) 00:20, 2 August 2010 (UTC)

editIsn't there a bilingual person out there who can include the information from the German article into the English article?

'email novel'?
editFrom the article: 'Sloterdijk published the e-mail novel The Schelling Project.'
So, 'e-mail novel', I'm just checking what this means? Perhaps the entire narrative consists of mobile phone messages? My understanding is that Sloterdijk’s books vie with soccer-star memoirs on the German best-seller lists. I'm gleaning something here of the bawdy eroticism and farcical elements in the novel. Is it like Liasons dangereuses? DanLanglois (talk) 05:53, 3 April 2018 (UTC)
Sex and feminism (former entry)
editIn September 2016, Sloterdijk published the e-mail novel The Schelling Project.[1] The semi-autobiographical text contains a self-portrait of the author, appearing as "Peer Sloterdijk"; several of Sloterdijk's friends such as Thomas Macho, Siegfried Mauser and Michaela Boenke figure in the novel in slight disguise. Together, so the plot goes, they draft a research proposal to the German Research Funding Agency (Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft) on the evolution of the female orgasm. To make it look more profound and thus to impress the reviewers, the team fakes a connection of the issue to the metaphysics of the German idealist philosopher Friedrich Wilhelm Joseph Schelling.
The reviewers, though, see through the mystification and turn down the application. Following the rejection, the team splits and each of its members takes his or her own course. While Sloterdijk's e-mail novel about an academic hoax was rated mediocre in terms of literary quality,[2] it came to be seen more as a political statement,[3] specifically as an attack on gender mainstreaming in 21st century Germany.[4] Critic Elke Schmitter, in a review article for Der Spiegel under the heading 'Woman as an Old Boys' Joke',[5] described Sloterdijk's text as an anti-feminist pamphlet thinly veiled as a novel.[6] In an interview with Süddeutsche Zeitung Sloterdijk defended himself against the charges and claimed his attitude towards women to be adoration rather than contempt.[7] Biohistorian15 (talk) 12:19, 30 March 2024 (UTC)
