Peter Sloterdijk retrata algunos temperamentos filosóficos desde la Antigüedad hasta el siglo XX y abre un nuevo acceso a los grandes maestros de la filosofÃa.
«El tÃtulo de la presente colección alude a la conocida sentencia de Fichte de que la filosofÃa que uno elige depende del tipo de persona que se es. Con ello querÃa decir que las almas serviles se deciden por un sistema naturalista que justifica su servilismo, mientras que las personas de mentalidad orgullosa se aferran a un sistema de libertad. Esta observación sigue siendo ahora tan verdadera como siempre. Espero haber mostrado con los breves estudios aquà reunidos que la escala de los temperamentos filosóficos va mucho más allá de la oposición entre tipos cobardes y orgullosos. Es tan extensa como el alma iluminada por el logos, cuyos lÃmites, afirmaba Heráclito, resultan imposibles de alcanzar, por mucho que se la recorra.» Peter Sloterdijk
