Abstract

This interview with Costantino Esposito presents a dialogue on nihilism and the search for meaning starting from it. It is a brief journey through Dr. Esposito's career, as he guides us in understanding his research into nihilism, which permeates our contemporary society far beyond the realm of values. It also influences literary production and audiovisual media, which help us to better understand the phenomenon of the search for meaning in people’s lives.
