More about the book
The book challenges the perception that existentialism equates to a simplistic form of humanism, a view influenced by Heidegger's 'Letter on Humanism'. It critiques structuralist and post-structuralist interpretations that dismiss existentialism as merely naïve. By examining the nuances of existential thought, the author aims to re-establish its credibility as a significant philosophical movement, arguing for its distinct concerns with human existence beyond the confines of traditional humanism.
