The book makes a new contribution to the contemporary debates on nihilism and the sacred. Drawing on an original interpretation of Richard Rorty’s writings, it challenges the orthodox treatment of nihilism as a malaise that human beings must overcome. Instead, nihilism should be framed as a problem for human culture to outgrow through pragmatism.
“Llanera provides a refreshing take on Rorty’s work, one that scholars, friendly and critical alike, would benefit greatly from reading.” (Susan Dieleman, Metaphilosophy, Vol. 53 (1), January, 2022)
