Are people inherently violent? Inherently moral? How do we understand the divine? How do we understand each other-if at all? What is the nature of reality? What does it mean to be human? These are philosophical questions, but McCarthy didn't write philosophical treatises: he wrote novels, plays, and screenplays that engage with his many and varied interests. Scholarship on McCarthy has addressed those questions and interests, and taken as a whole, it shows how his work takes us from deep dives into the details of historical context, regional identity, and literary allusion to ways of understanding the world more broadly.Until McCarthy's death in 2023, scholars continually adapted to an author who experimented with differing forms, genres, and settings, all in an effort to capture big-picture truths.
