This article presents Eugene Rose’s critique of nihilism, the philosophy which he had himself embraced and was devastated by before his conversion to Orthodoxy, before his monastic tonsure and ordination to priesthood. The article argues that Rose’s treatise is not just an ex-nihilist’s and neophyte’s defence of Christianity, but a philosophical analysis of the errors and perils of nihilism, whose relevance today is manifested, for instance, by Putin’s policy and his war in Ukraine.
