The Essence of Nihilism, a collection of essays by Italian philosopher Emanuele Severino, is an attempt to answer the fundamental question of what nihilism is. One of the most interesting thinkers of our time analyses the reasons why nihilism is the basis of our values, philosophical views and faith. He discusses when European civilisation took the wrong path and moved away from the truth. And how to overcome the nihilistic vision that resonates in each of us with the fear of death.
