RESISTISM: A Philosophy of Romantic Realism Resistism is a systematic philosophical work developed from The Protest of Romance - a series of philosophical memoirs written between 2016 and 2019. It proposes a complete theory of human existence organized around a single premise: that the spirit of resistance is the most essential feature of conscious life. The work moves through eleven chapters, from ontology to ethics to aesthetics to theology. It argues that the human being is not an accidental product of indifferent forces but a singular, irreplaceable self whose dignity is inherent and whose most complete actualization is achieved through the sustained refusal to capitulate - to nihilism, to self-betrayal, to the crowd's demand for conformity. Central concepts include Geung-ji (긍지) - noble pride as a settled, non-comparative dignity - Romantic Realism as the perception of romance within ordinary reality rather than apart from it, and the claim that philosophy, followed honestly to its limit, opens onto theology: God as the ultimate source of the resistance that the human being participates in but does not generate. This is not a book written for academic recognition or popular appeal. It is a philosophical account of what it means to exist with full seriousness - and an argument that such existence is both possible and demanded.
