existential
Existentialism ( ) is a form of philosophical inquiry that explores the problem of human existence. Existentialist philosophers explore the problems related to the meaning, purpose, and value of human existence, and personal agency. The individual person's phenomenological starting point is direct experience of life. The concepts of existentialism are existential crisis, a sense of dread, and anxiety in the face of an absurd world, authenticity, courage, and virtue.Existentialism is associated with several 19th- and 20th-century European philosophers who shared an emphasis on the human subject, despite often profound differences in thought. Among the earliest figures associated with existentialism are philosophers Søren Kierkegaard and Friedrich Nietzsche and novelist Fyodor Dostoevsky, all of whom critiqued rationalism and concerned themselves with the problem of meaning. In the 20th century, prominent existentialist thinkers included Jean-Paul Sartre, Albert Camus, Martin Heidegger, Simone de Beauvoir, Karl Jaspers, Gabriel Marcel, and Paul Tillich. Many existentialists considered traditional systematic or academic philosophies, in style and content, to be too abstract and removed from concrete human experience. A primary virtue in existentialist thought is authenticity. Existentialism would influence many disciplines outside of philosophy, including theology, drama, art, literature, and psychology.
