This article bears the unpleasant designation of "Stub." This is a Bad Thing. Provide a great service to NGE fan-geeks everywhere by making it awesomer!


To be paired with Religious References in Neon Genesis Evangelion (and perhaps with Sexual Imagery in Neon Genesis Evangelion?). Guidelines for expansion: The top part is only for concrete and confirmed references. The bottom part, which bears the T&A label, allows some theorization, thematic analysis etc. But please be concise and try to avoid that type of kitchen sink philosophy found on trillion dubious fan-sites.

Destrudo and Libido

Have their specific articles (that might no longer be needed because of this page)

Hedgehog's Dilemma

This is a concept created by the German philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer. [Source needed]

Pleasure Principle

A BGM title.

Thanatos

Another BGM title.

The Sickness Unto Death

The first title of Episode 16, Sickness unto death, and..., is a reference to a book by the Danish philosopher Søren Kierkegaard. <- Wikipedia link, we could use something better.


Theory & Analysis

  • Oedipal tension!
  • Return to the womb!
  • Cocks everywhere! (See: Sexual Imagery in NGE)
    • The Phallus Chair and the Shadow Boner?
