Book Overview

Richard Appignanesi goes on a personal quest of Existentialism in its original state. He begins with Camus' question of suicide: 'Must life have a meaning to be lived?' Is absurdity at the heart of Existentialism? Or is Sartre right: is Existentialism 'the least scandalous, most technically austere' of all teachings?

This brilliant Graphic Guide explores Existentialism in a unique comic book-style.

Existentialism

A very helpful book for the beginning philosophy student. It outlined complicated concepts taught by the existential philosophers including Husserl, Heidegger, Sartre and Camus. The authors used cartoons to express the abstract philosophical concepts brilliantly. If you are writing a paper on any of these philosophers where you have to compare and contrast their ideas, I recommend this book. It helped me understand the subtle differences between Husserl and Heidegger's philosophy more clearly so that I could write a comprehensive paper on them with confidence. It also explained German terms such as "Gleichschaltung" through pictures and captions.
