Summary: A Seducing Book
Comment: In this book, Baudrillard develops his own theory in various fields from sex, Freud, Kierkegaard, to politics in the theme of gseductionh. Probably, this book is written to be seduction. At the same time, we can see Baudrillardfs general attitude toward his works including this book: Prediction, warning, and seduction. He seems to learn a lot of things from Kierkegaardfs works. In the first part, he maintains his own theory on sex against Freud, which is different from feministsf theory based on sexual difference. It is interesting that he almost predicts todayfs situation of sex, which is why his works always seduce people. Moreover, I am impressed by his comments on Japanese striptease and by his idea that Japanese sexual culture is different from Western one. Through chapters, his point that seduction is fatal to itself appears continuously in his skillful rhetoric: The style of this book is similar to his gSimulacra and Simulationh, which is a good guidebook to read this book.
