#11 Nihilism

from The Barrcast · host Barrcast

In this episode we talk about nihilism, or at least my conception of it. We explore the claim that rather than getting past nihilism, we should embrace it, incorporate it, and employ it from time to time as a tool. We discuss two great texts: The Parable of the Madman: http://www.historyguide.org/europe/madman.html The Snow Man: https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poems-and-poets/poems/detail/45235 ~ Enjoying the Barrcast?
