Back to All Events

Discussion on Nietzsche's Eternal Return with Prof. Richardson

Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900) was a German philosopher and cultural critic who published intensively in the 1870s and 1880s. He is famous for uncompromising criticisms of traditional European morality and religion, as well as of conventional philosophical ideas and social and political pieties associated with modernity.

Nietzsche himself suggests that the concept of "eternal recurrence"––"the idea that all events in the world repeat themselves in the same sequence through an eternal series of cycles” was his most important thought, but that has not made it any easier for commentators to understand.

Professor John Richardson, the leading expert on Nietzsche, will speak on this significant topic to give us better insight.
