ABSTRACT

This conclusion presents some closing thoughts on the concepts covered in the preceding chapters of this book. The book examines the tradition of the absurd; however, the old world’s patterns and frameworks lurk around every corner. The hope has been to begin to work through an academic production that takes into account different ways of knowing that span the academic, esoteric and fictional. The book provides a new kind of academic production in which social theories and imaginative productions are blended together to form a different kind of narrative to address the problems that challenge humanity’s future. The rich expressions of language of humanity have been rife with trying to understand different kinds of meaning outside of just written representations, so much that truth took on multiple forms, especially in ancient Greek society. Foucault forces to ponder what was considered the “true” life through his lectures on ancient Greek texts.
