Deep dives

The Concept of Eternal Return

The podcast explores Nietzsche's idea of the eternal return, which suggests that our lives will repeat infinitely, with all the same joys, pains, and experiences. Nietzsche presents this concept in his book 'The Gay Science' in 1882 and later expands on it in 'Thus Spoke Zarathustra', suggesting that all things in the world also recur eternally. This idea challenges traditional notions of being versus becoming and highlights the constant process of change and motion in the world.
