God¡¯s Suicide
The Apology of Human Extermination in Philip Mainl?nder
This article boards some of the central aspects of the philosophy proposed by Philip Mainl?nder. The intent is centered on glimpsing the implications that arise from the explored author¡¯s thoughts, primarily in regards to the attitude that is derived from the contemplation of human extermination as a consequent solu?tion to the suicide and death of God. The intention of man in the world from said perspective is analyzed and links are offered to authors who have adopted for themselves the scabrous and complex paths of committed Nihilism. The text ends with a series of human redemption alternatives through a philosophy about death and not as a function of death itself.
