Introduction · · · · · ·
Jean Baudrillard is a world-renowned postmodern theorist. But in front of interviewers and listeners, he becomes an excellent speaker, sharing his views on theory, reality, and life with enthusiasm and philosophy. This book collects 25 interviews covering his entire career for the first time, spanning 40 years from 1968 to 2008. The topics of these interviews are wide-ranging, covering major works such as "Consumer Society", "Fatal Strategies", "On Seduction", "Simulation and Simulation", as well as his rich life experiences such as his academic career, trip to the United States, and photography practice, and his response to contemporary topics such as terrorism. In this book, we can not only get a glimpse of the full picture of this scholar's intellectual career, but also have a dialogue with such a sincere and profound old friend. These interviews scattered in newspapers, magazines and journals around the world may be the most valuable and vivid record of Baudrillard's thoughts in the world.
