Dionysus in Exile: Nietzsche, the Dionysian, and the Modern World with Keegan Kjeldsen
Description
Sereptie is joined by Keegan Kjeldsen of The Nietzsche Podcast to explore the exile of Dionysus in the modern world. They discuss the Dionysian as a force of ecstasy, self-forgetting, and excess, tracing its decline from ancient Greek rituals to the rationalized, surveilled, and moralized structures of today. Touching on Nietzsche, Bataille, and Orphic traditions, they consider whether Dionysus can be reclaimed and what his return might look like. The conversation also explores surveillance culture, secrecy, and the necessity of spaces for true excess and creative expenditure.
