About this deal

All these poems where it is merely the Poem that is in question – a whole poetry with no other substance than itself! What would we say of a prayer whose object was religion? It is one of the most talked about quote from the season, however what is not talked about is what follows, which is, his partner, very normally, shrugging off this idea as awful. Machine translation, like DeepL or Google Translate, is a useful starting point for translations, but translators must revise errors as necessary and confirm that the translation is accurate, rather than simply copy-pasting machine-translated text into the English Wikipedia. Cioran is the worst example of the braindead levels of stupid, philistine "middle class melancholic" - not being a worker, a wage earner, being an aesthete with some insomnia, all that he cares about is about gloominess - truth, insight, everything worthwhile we seek when reading someone else's opinion on something is sacrificed on the altar of "what is the gloomiest position I can possibly hold in this topic?" Cioran is thus an aestheticist, meaning that how something sounds, how aesthetically pleasing it is for him, is what determines what position he will hold at any given point - not its truth value. In a series of interlinking aphorisms which are at once pessimistic, poetic and extremely funny, Cioran finds a kind of joy in his own despair, revelling in the absurdity and futility of our existence, and our inability to live in the world.

Is Cioran sportsmanlike or is he putting a sham sometimes? In the end, does that matter? Emil Cioran is a man of contradictions, yet, highly consistent in his contradictions. He writes every one of them in earnest. Cioran also strongly affirmed his role as a comedian. He was once invited to speak in Zurich and when being introduced before his speech, he was compared to the likes of Kierkegaard and Schopenhauer. In response to this high praise, Cioran said, “But, I’m just a joker.” Of course, Cioran was much more than a joker, but he was known to be averse to admiration and success, keenly aware of their dangers as he was; although this aversion may relate to his self-critical nature as well.

About the author

The Romanian philosopher Emil Cioran (1911 – 1995) was a precocious thinker, reading the likes of Diderot, Dostoevsky, Flaubert, Schopenhauer, and Nietzsche at the age of 14 (the latter having a major influence on his work). His precociousness was later exemplified by first major philosophical work, On the Heights of Despair, published in 1934, when Cioran was just 22 years old. This work also earned him the Prize of the Royal Academy for young writers, one of two literary awards he accepted (Cioran also accepted the prestigious Rivoral Prize, in 1950; but every other award he was given, he rejected). a b c Romney, Jonathan (16 March 2020).

The more I think of what could not have failed to happen when my own soul’s turn came, the more I realize that if there was one soul which more than the rest must have resisted incarnation, it was mine." Burukluk gerçekten Cioran'ın kafasının içerisindeki keskinliği tam olarak anlattığı üst düzey bir kitaptı. Montaigne, a sage, has had no posterity. Rousseau, an hysteric, still stirs nations. I like only the thinkers who have inspired no tribune of the people."
