Mysterious stranger, last novel (unfinished) of Mark Twain offers a profound social criticism, culminating in a pessimistic view of the world. Incidentally I found recently on the Internet next cartoon, inspired director's work after Twain's bobble jug quote: "In this film from 1986, Twain's bobble jug little nihilistic novel is reduced to the scale of a brief episode, movie and extracting material and other works of Twain, including "Tom Sawyer" and "Letters from the Earth." But "mysterious stranger" tops them all. In less than five minutes, a clay Satan visits the Tom, Becky Thatcher, and Huck, they built a village and then destroys lightning and an earthquake that swallows all those cute clay figurines, villagers, farmers, soldiers and a cow most endearing than any other. In a word, it's scary. One can only shudder at the thought of countless impressionable bobble jug children and candid, who crouched in front of the TV, they were marked for life after cheerfully gave this achievement with eyes black as pitch. He who believes that one can not exaggerate bobble jug in Twain's work so did not see this film . Sometimes even a good thing can really be pushed too far. " Source: http://tiny.cc/9kw5w But before all existential condition as children react scared and impressionable. (What's bobble jug that moment in life where we can safely say that we are "mature"?) When asked face-to-face with suffering, bobble jug aging and death, we find refuge in ideology, religion or vices and virtual reality. I believe that man can overcome nihilism and just accepting the absurdity of his condition with serenity. Thus, in an indifferent universe, deterministic and subject bobble jug only to chance absurd gives us the ability to self-determine. Absurd has given us freedom. Absurd, for me, is a reason for joy.
You can not overcome nihilism because you can not beat 'nothing'. It's like you want to do something out of "nothing". Absurdity is just a kind of "cool" postmodern. When society is rationalized so you get to situations that revoluta bobble jug against normality. Reply Delete
