Abstract
This paper will present the Objective Moral critique of Cormac McCarthy’s Blood Meridian or The Evening Redness in the West. Since Objective Morality cannot be reduced to a system, an ideology, or a philosophy, and since all world religions do not claim it for themselves, but build their beliefs (which come from divine revelations) upon it – we can also state that this paper will present a common-sense critique of the novel. This is because Common Sense or Vernunft or νοῦς (nous) is a faculty with which human beings universally come to know formal causes (eternal Truths) and final causes (objective moral order – i.e., the Good). Therefore, the paper will analyse the novel’s major subversive messages, found in its espousal of Nietzschean philosophy, Gnosticism, and inherent in postmodern literary techniques which the novel utilizes – all of which are only a façade for McCarthy’s propagation of the religion of Satanism.
Abstract (croatian)
Ovim će se radom predstaviti objektivna moralna kritika Cormac McCarthyjevog romana Krvavi meridijan ili Večernja rumen na zapadu. Pošto objektivni moral nije moguće reducirati na neki sistem, na neku ideologiju, ili na nečiju filozofiju, te pošto ga ni jedna svjetska religija ne uzima za sebe, već izgrađuje svoja vjerovanja (koja dolaze od božanskih otkrivenja) na njemu – možemo također reći da će ovaj rad predstaviti zdravo-razumsku kritiku romana. To je stoga što je zdrav razum iliti Vernunft iliti νοῦς (nous), sposobnost s kojom ljudska bića univerzalno dolaze do spoznaje formalnih uzroka (vječnih Istina) i finalnih uzroka (objektivnog moralnog poretka – tj. Dobra). Stoga, ovaj će rad analizirati osnovne subverzivne poruke romana, nađene u njegovoj promociji nietzscheanske filozofije, gnosticizma, te inherentne postmodernim književnim tehnikama koje roman koristi – što sve samo čini krinku za McCarthyjevo propagiranje religije sotonizma.
