Riassunto

This anthology gathers a wide variety of excerpts from the existential and phenomenological writings of the 19th and 20th centuries. Luper (philosophy, Trinity U.) provides a brief history of the existential movement, as well as introductory essays to each chapter. Kierkegaard, Nietzsche, Heidegger, and Sartre, all have individual chapters, while others such as Buber, de Beauvoir, and Tillich are incorporated into one chapter on 20th century thinkers. The book concludes with a chapter on existentialist literature, including excerpts from Dostoyevsky, Kafka, and Flannery O'Connor. Following each chapter are reflection questions and suggestions for further reading. No index. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
