My Hebrew nor Greek is up to the task, and translations wouldn't do. Besides, I have a feeling the 'conclusion' will not be of much use for my purposes. ;]

Wittgenstein's Philosophische Untersuchungen on the other hand, are a nice place to start, as I've found. I use the word 'nihilism' not as some kind of ideology that was 'invented' at one point or other, I use it for what it is: an all-encompassing lack of certainty, of ori?ntation and of the inability to think about one's place in whatever one is in. One that thinks anything in philosophy to be new, or can be invented, is always mistaken.

I see.  There are several definitions for the term nihilism, so I appreciate the clarification.
