Theresia Enzensberger kann nicht schlafen. Also schreibt sie ein Buch über den Schlaf und folgt dabei den verschiedenen Stadien, die wir in der Nacht durchleben. So beginnt sie in der zähneknirschenden Leichtschlafphase mit einem Essay über die Moralisierung von Schlaf, Traum als politische Metapher und die Folgen allgemeinen Schlafmangels. Fast unmerklich wird ihr Text in der Tiefschlafphase privater, innerlicher, und eröffnet uns eine intensivere, persönlichere Sicht auf die Welt, die Kunst, die Literatur.

Een praktische gids met de ideeën van de beroemde filosoof Friedrich Nietzsche als leidraad voor een intenser en creatiever leven. Met Nietzsche aan de keukentafel leert je met andere ogen kijken naar jezelf en de wereld om je heen. Aan de hand van praktische vragen en oefeningen word je uitgedaagd je opvattingen kritisch te bevragen en eerlijk te kijken naar wat jij belangrijk vindt. Hoe blijf je jezelf in een groep? Hoe vind je je sterke kanten en valkuilen? En bovenal: hoe geef jij betekenis aan een in wezen doelloos bestaan? Friedrich Nietzsche omschreef zichzelf als een nihilist.

Philosophy - the term sounds fascinating, beautiful, somehow romantic and harmonious, and at the same time like great intellectual effort. Yet philosophy is actually neither particularly romantic nor particularly strenuous. It is true that one has to use one's brain, and perhaps some things exceed normal common sense, but basically philosophy only means to be interested in man and the world. The image one has in one's mind of ancient Greek philosophers strolling in their long robes in the Athenian sun while exchanging their thoughts may seem romantic, but they often dealt with serious topics.

These issues range from freaking out about an exam tomorrow to the moment our lives fall apart because finances worked against our favor.

Can a mind be free of authority so that there is no impingement of the past, so that the mind is always alert, learning in the present? Can the mind experience, go through a challenge so completely that it leaves no mark? The mind must purge itself of the social morality in order to be moral. Has experience any value at all? Attention is the highest form of the good. What is the relationship between two human beings when there are no images? What is wisdom?
