Notes

¹ Peter Sloterdijk, Critique of Cynical Reason [1983], trans. Andreas Huyssen (Minneapolis, MN: University of Minnesota Press, 1988). In 1989 Sloterdijk's shorter study of Nietzsche also came out in English (in the same series), but unfortunately no significant theoretical work appeared since then, until recently. Cf. Peter Sloterdijk, Thinker on Stage: Nietzsche's Materialism [1986], trans. Jamie Owen Daniel (Minneapolis, MN: University of Minnesota Press, 1989). Several of Sloterdijk's books have recently appeared in English: Terror from the Air [2002], trans. Amy Patton and Steve Corcoran (Cambridge, MA: Semiotext(e), 2009); God's Zeal: The Battle of the Three Monotheisms [2007], trans. Wieland Hoban (Cambridge, MA: Polity, 2009); and Derrida, an Egyptian: On the Problem of the Jewish Pyramid [2007], trans. Wieland Hoban (Cambridge, MA: Polity, 2009). Forthcoming from Semiotext(e) is a book of interviews conducted by Hans-Jürgen Heinrichs, Neither Sun Nor Death, trans. Steve Corcoran (Cambridge, MA: Semiotext(e), 2010).
