Resumen

GODINEZ, Héctor Sevilla. God killed himself. Invitation to human extermination in the transpersonal vision of Mainländer. Tópicos [online]. 2019, n.38, pp.134-153. ISSN 1666-485X.

This article addresses some of the central aspects of the philosophy proposed by Philip Mainländer. The intention is focused on glimpsing the implications of this author’s thinking, mainly with regard to the attitude derived from the contemplation of the extermination of the human as a consequent solution to the suicide and death of God. The intention of man in the world is analyzed from this perspective and links are offered with authors who have welcomed the rugged and complex paths of compromised nihilism. The text ends with a series of alternatives for the redemption of the human through a philosophy about death and not as a function of death itself.

Palabras clave : Extermination; Death of God; Redemption; Suicide; Nihilism.
