Full Description

Existentialism and Phenomenology are two of the most innovative and influential philosophical trends in the 20th century. Existentialism puts individual freedom and responsibility at the center of any approach to the world’s meaning. Phenomenology is the theoretical study of phenomena (that is, of how consciousness works and gives us access to the essence of things). This course examines the French school of these movements through the study of its two foremost figures: Jean-Paul Sartre and Maurice Merleau-Ponty.
