Jonathan Lear’s insightful meditation joins the end of the world to the end—that is, the purpose—of living. How to persist in the face of planetary catastrophe and the realization that even cultures can die? Lear sees in mourning an avenue of thriving and turns to a handful of moral exemplars to refine our sense of the good we can yet achieve.
