    <title>The Cul-de-sac: Nietzsche, Percepts, and the Way Out</title>

    <description><![CDATA[ In their fourth session, Bob and Cameron take up the philosophical structure underlying all the previous conversations: the cul-de-sac. Cameron traces it from his Princeton undergraduate thesis on Nietzsche's second untimely meditation, through a disappointing visit to McLuhan's Coach House in fall 1966, and into a precise six-step account of how Western thought advanced — step by step — into nihilism. The second half reads closely from Bob's essay to show that McLuhan's distinction between "light through" and "light on" is the answer Nietzsche could see the need for but couldn't reach. ]]></description>
