Existentialism: Disintegration of Man's Soul (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781162749372)

Existentialism: Disintegration of Man's Soul is a philosophical treatise written by Guido De Ruggiero. The book explores the existentialist movement, which emphasizes individual existence, freedom, and choice. De Ruggiero delves into the origins of existentialism, tracing its roots back to the works of Kierkegaard and Nietzsche. He then examines the ideas of prominent existentialist thinkers such as Heidegger, Sartre, and Camus, analyzing their views on the nature of existence, the human condition, and the search for meaning in life. De Ruggiero argues that existentialism has led to the disintegration of man's soul, as it emphasizes the individual over the collective and rejects traditional values and beliefs. He contends that this has resulted in a sense of alienation and despair in modern society, as people struggle to find purpose and meaning in a world that is increasingly fragmented and uncertain. The book is a comprehensive exploration of existentialism, offering both a historical overview and a critical analysis of its philosophical underpinnings. It is recommended for anyone interested in the existentialist movement, as well as those seeking a deeper understanding of the human condition and the search for meaning in life.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
