Description

In this episode of our existentialism series, we turn to Dostoevsky’s Notes from Underground through the lens of Nietzsche’s philosophy. The Underground Man, with his sharp intellect and corrosive self-awareness, embodies the tensions of modernity that Nietzsche critiqued: the struggle between reason and will, the paralysis of excessive self-consciousness, and the despair that arises from living without a guiding purpose or authentic values.
