Nietzsche, the birth of tragedy, and the technology trap with Babette Babich

Do life's struggles make the search for meaning a hopeless endeavour?

Join renowned, continental philosopher Babette Babich as she explains the Nietzschean path to finding purpose, arguing that we must embrace all elements of life - good and bad - in our search for a meaningful existence.
