Wipe Out the Welsh: Ebook Edition

Inspired by the existential moral seriousness of writers like Cioran, Kierkegaard and Nietzsche, the author of this collection of short essays attempts to address the spiritual and moral vacuity he sees characterising his and his kind’s material and consumer-led modern day existence. The problem of postmodernism and Anglo-linguistic philosophy’s omnipresent relativism is met with a cry of despair and often hearkens back to a mode of meaning derived from something like a Heideggerian ‘care’ or Schopenhauerian ontology of the Will. An air of frustration is unmistakable and, while the author does not talk down to the prospective reader, a call to something like a mainstream philosophy of meaning is made, to serve the man in the street, while the Academy and its universities receive some criticism.
