Overview
Landesman's Journal is the intellectual journal of the ongoing search of a highly perceptive philosopher who has left civilization for contemplation in the forest. The author philosophically and rationally explains metaphysics and his intuitions of the soul with post-modern sophistication. He advances the thought of some of his most influential predecessors: Berdyaev, Emerson, William James, Pessoa, Senancour, Thoreau and, Nietzsche. The depth, intensity, and fluency of his writing steadily increase as the journal progresses. In his view, dogmatic religions and one-dimensional scientism are the main barriers to spiritual development. Landesman was a lightfooted philosopher, the type Nietzsche had recommended for philosophy, but who is rarely found. One might paraphrase Walt Whitman by saying, ""He who touches this book touches a philosopher.""
