Course Description
How can you create a meaningful life for yourself out of the possibilities of human existence? The great existentialist philosophers - Kierkegaard, Nietzsche, Heidegger, Sartre, de Beauvoir, and Camus - addressed this kind of question, aiming to make us aware of the extent and burdens of our freedom and responsibility in answering it. This course encourages students to sample key writings of, and to think critically about, these philosophers whose goal was to stimulate the quest for a self-aware, reflective, and imaginative existence.
