Jonathan Webber Books

Photographic survey of Auschwitz concentration camp chronicling its historical facts.

Sartre's exploration of consciousness and freedom reveals that a person's character is defined by their projects, which serves as the core theme of his existentialist philosophy. The book delves into concepts such as bad faith, personal relationships, and existential psychoanalysis, emphasizing the importance of authenticity in shaping one's identity. Through a careful analysis of both his theoretical and fictional works, the author highlights how these elements interconnect within Sartre's broader existentialist framework.

This much-updated edition of a ground-breaking book expands the broad coverage of its stimulating approach. With forty-five new photographs and accompanying essays, it convincingly demonstrates the complexity of the Jewish past in Polish Galicia and the attempts to memorialize its heritage, as well as the unexpected revival of Jewish life.

Photographic survey of Auschwitz concentration camp chronicling its historical facts.

Jonathan Webber presents an original interpretation of existentialism as the ethical theory that human freedom is the foundation of all other values. He analyses classic works by Sartre, Beauvoir, and Fanon, in critical contrast with others by Camus, Freud, and Merleau-Ponty and discusses key topics such as character, gender, and race.
