About this listen

Existentialism pervades modern culture, yet if you ask most people what it means, they won’t be able to tell you. In this lively and topical introduction, Wartenberg reveals a vibrant mode of philosophical inquiry that addresses concerns at the heart of the existence of every human being. He uses classic films, novels and plays to present the ideas of now-legendary Existentialist thinkers from Nietzsche and Camus to Sartre and Heidegger and to explore central concepts, including freedom, anxiety and the absurd. Special attention is paid to the views of Simone de Beauvoir and Franz Fanon, who use the theories of existentialism to address gender and colonial oppression.©2008 Thomas Wartenberg (P)2012 Bolinda Publishing Philosophy Metaphysical

What the critics say

“Thomas Wartenberg … will make existentialism come alive for a new generation. (He) clarifies key existentialist concepts and helps us all appreciate why existentialism was philosophy’s most exciting contribution to 20th century thought.” (Gareth B. Matthews, Author and Professor of Philosophy at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst)
