This is an old revision of this page, as edited by Sirhu (talk | contribs) at 16:40, 7 September 2023 (Despite Ligotti identifying himself as a pessimist, his work serves as a great introduction to philosophical pessimism in general, as well as many of its thinkers, which prompted me to include it under the "second literature section". Others are welcome to disagree.). The present address (URL) is a permanent link to this revision, which may differ significantly from the current revision.
