Your project sounds fascinating! The tension between nihilism and existential meaning is a crucial philosophical discussion, especially in contemporary society. I'd love to explore how different philosophical frameworks address existential threats posed by nihilism. Looking forward to learning more about your research!

Thank you. Based on your comment, I’m not sure—are you intending to participate in this project?

Hello! Your announcement is very interesting to me. However, i didn't realize the topic of your research. " Nihilism" is a philosophy of F.Nietzsche and his followers from postmodernist philosophy? If so, there are no more" dangers" from them for me to see. But is there is some other " nihilists" who could threat our cultural reality, i have no idea. Could you provide me with more detailed information on the question, please?

Hello, thank you for your interest in the topic. This research explores existential issues through nihilistic perspectives and seeks possible solutions. While nihilism is commonly associated with Friedrich Nietzsche’s philosophy, the nihilistic worldview has posed an existential challenge since ancient times. From Greek tragedies, such as those of Sophocles, to Shakespearean dramas, themes of existential despair and meaninglessness have persisted.

In Shakespeare’s famous play Hamlet, written centuries earlier, the titular character asks, “To be or not to be?” This soliloquy grapples with fundamental existential questions. If one answers Hamlet’s question in favor of meaninglessness, existential threats arise—leading to a lack of purpose, direction, and engagement with life’s enduring values.

When I mention "dangers," I don’t mean immediate threats but rather the psychological and existential struggles that nihilism can evoke—such as the boredom of meaninglessness, a dismissive approach to life’s eternal values, and the absence of intellectual, creative, or world-changing aspirations.

Since this is an interdisciplinary project, the topic will be examined from each researcher’s academic perspective, fostering cross-field collaboration.

Thanks for the explanation! I guess you better cooperate with psychologists in this matter rather than philosophers like me. Any way I wish you every success with the project!

Thank you. While psychology is an important aspect, the project is fundamentally philosophical in its core inquiry and interdisciplinary scope.
