Existentialism Is a Humanism Author: Jean-Paul Sartre Publisher: Época Collection: New Talents Subject: Fiction, Philosophy Format: Paperback Pages: 87 Weight: 91 g Dimensions: 21 cm x 14 cm Code: 9786078473472 Existentialism Is a Humanism has become a classic of 20th-century Western thought, primarily because it presents the fundamental tenets of existentialism in a clear and accessible way. The enduring relevance of Sartre's thought-his definition of man as a continuous process of becoming, his vehement affirmation of personal choice as a commitment that concerns all humanity, his refusal to allow anguish to lead to apathy-not only remains undiminished but also proves to be a very useful tool for confronting the present.
