Yesterday I published a piece in The Point Magazine, an expanded and extensively-edited version of my previous post “Philosophy and Alienation”:
I have also been writing and editing at Athwart Magazine, where some recent publications of mine include:
- Some thoughts on the Netflix series “Love on the Spectrum,” about the dating lives of autistic young adults
- An interview with my friend Zena Hitz, whose excellent new book Lost in Thought: The Hidden Pleasures of an Intellectual Life is one of the most important works published this year
- An essay on the life and thought of Henry Bugbee, a semi-obscure American existentialist philosopher whose wonderful book The Inward Morning has been a solace and inspiration for me
- Thoughts on the degradation of conversation in America, and its replacement by a discourse of moralizing secular sermons
- A (somewhat negative) review of Hungarian cultural critic Laszlo Foldenyi’s new book Dostoyevsky Reads Hegel in Siberia and Bursts Into Tears
