Something Like Philosophy is a study of warfare’s sorrowful hellscape.
Each of its essays explores themes of privation, trauma, horror, and suffering throughout military history in the hopes that we might draw connections between lived experiences otherwise thought to be separate. Through these connections, we might better appreciate the nature of armed conflict and learn from it. This work seeks not to glorify, nor to judge, or excuse the tragedies of which it speaks: merely to better understand them.
Lest they be forgotten.
