An invitation of rüdiger campe from the Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, allowed me to finish it in the spring of 2007. the original impulse for this book, a number of years ago, i owe to Jean-paul gaudillière. my thanks go to Henning schmidgen for his critical reading of the first manuscript; to the translator, David Fernbach; and to the copy editor, Andrew Frisardi, of stanford University press.
