Aus der Höhe des Geistes gesehen, hat Fußball etwas erschreckend Direktes, den Geschmack des physischen Kampfs und den Geruch von Körpern und Erde. Kann ein Spiel, das sich so offensichtlich gegen die Zivilisation stellt, einen philosophischen Gehalt haben? Dieser Frage geht der Sportphilosoph Gunter Gebauer nach, indem er das Fußballspiel ins Verhältnis zu anderen kulturellen Errungenschaften setzt.

Ein Hörerlebnis mit vielen Originaltönen aus sechs Jahrzehnten Fußballgeschichte!
