The Existentialist Revolution
by caio · 0 enrolled
A rigorous exploration of existentialist philosophy from its 19th-century precursors to its 20th-century flowering and contemporary legacy. This course traces the movement through Kierkegaard's leap of faith, Nietzsche's radical revaluation, Husserl's phenomenological method, and the major existentialists — Heidegger, Sartre, de Beauvoir, Camus, and Merleau-Ponty. You will engage with primary texts, confront the fundamental questions of freedom, meaning, and authenticity, and discover how existentialism reshaped philosophy, literature, politics, and everyday life.
