Begleitband zur gleichnamigen Ausstellung im Deutschen Hygiene-Museum, Dresden vom 28. September 2018 bis 18. August 2019 Ergänzt wird der Band durch ein beigelegtes Kinderbuch: Die Sonnenhunde und das letzte große Geheimnis (von Catherine Nichols mit Illustrationen von Ulli Grötz). Woher rührt die universelle Faszination, die die Sonne auf uns ausübt? Was wissen wir überhaupt über unser Zentralgestirn, und welche Geheimnisse verbergen sich noch immer in dieser unvorstellbar heißen Plasmakugel? In sieben reich bebilderten Kapiteln erzählen namhafte Autorinnen und Autoren die Geschichte von der Sonne und unserer Beziehung zu ihr. Sie bringen Objekte und Erkenntnisse aus Kunst, Kulturgeschichte und Naturwissenschaft in einen sinnlichen Dialog über das intensive Verhältnis der Menschheit zur Sonne, das unser Leben seit über fünftausend Jahre prägt. Von altägyptischen Anbetungsritualen, Alchimie und Astrologie, über Solarien, Solarfarmen und Sonden bis zu Bikinis, Bomben und Popmusik - untersucht wird unsere Sonne als Gottheit, Zeitgeberin und Symbol, als Leuchtkraft, Arznei, Energiequelle und natürlich als Stern. Mit Essays von Sara Barnes, David Elliott, Lucie Green, Benjamin Hasselhorn, Catherine Nichols, John Perlin, Jörg Völlnagel und Tania Woloshyn
