As influências gnósticas de Peter Sloterdijk

The german philosopher Peter Sloterdijk in one of his mostly known books, “Extra amiento del Mundo” makes a proposition to update a old gnostic subject in order to achieve a contemporaneous theory of Man. He also proposes to update the contemporary non-metaphisical language with the help of the old metaphisical language, mainly the one used by the western gnostic tradition, in order to make the contemporaneous one able to deal with the human experience of denial of the world. So we propose to make an investigation in some of our german philosopher’s texts to evaluate how far goes the influence of those gnostic concepts over his thought.
