Subtitles section Play video Print subtitles Cosmic Indifference, closely related to the concept of Cosmicism, is a literary and philosophical idea most prominently associated with the work of American writer H.P. Lovecraft. This concept posits that the universe is vast, ancient, and indifferent to the existence of humanity. It suggests that human achievements, struggles, and emotions are ultimately meaningless when viewed against the backdrop of the cosmos. Lovecraft's stories often feature cosmic entities that exist beyond human comprehension, neither good nor evil, existing in a realm of indifference towards humanity. This makes human endeavors seem trivial and insignificant in the grand scheme of the universe. Cosmicism has influenced not only literature but also modern pop culture and philosophy, evolving beyond Lovecraft's original works. It is recognized as an influential movement, impacting authors, filmmakers, and game developers who continue to explore themes of cosmic indifference
