Sam Shepard's States of Shock: Nihilism in Political Drama
"What I relate is the history of the next two centuries. I describe what is coming, what can no longer come differently: the advent of nihilism" Nietzsche 3 . Such was Nietzsche's prophecy in The Will toPower. According to him, nihilism means the highest values devaluating themselves; aim is lacking and "Why?" finds no answer.
