The Philosophy of Depression with Aku Visala

Together with Jussi Ahlroth, philosopher of religion Aku Visala will examine depression as an utterly human response to global realities. Drawing from philosophy, theology, and cognitive science, Visala’s work examines an existential experience shaped by meaning, agency, and the pressures of modern life.

In a conversation that means to be vulnerable rather than diagnostic, we’ll think about what our suffering reveals about who we are and how we navigate a complex world.
