One of the most distinctive cultural phenomena of recent years has been the increasing fame of fame. Mark Rowlands argues that our obsession with fame has transformed it: no longer associated with excellence or achievement in a field of endeavour, it is now unconnected to any discernible distinction, allowing a person to be famous simply for being famous. To understand this new form of fame, simultaneously fascinating and worthless, Rowlands shows that we have to understand a dispute that began in ancient Greece between Plato and Protagoras and was continued in a remarkable philosophical experiment in eighteenth-century France. Somewhat like contestants on a reality TV show, we find ourselves, unwittingly, playing out the consequences of this experiment.
