{"product_id":"existentialism-thomas-flynn-9780192804280","title":"Existentialism: A Very Short Introduction","description":"One of the leading philosophical movements of the twentieth century, existentialism has had more impact on literature and the arts than any other school of thought. Focusing on the leading figures of existentialism, including Sartre, Nietzsche, Heidegger, Kierkegaard, de Beauvoir, Merleau-Ponty, and Camus, Thomas Flynn offers a concise account of existentialism, explaining the key themes of individuality, free will, and personal responsibility, which marked the movement as a way of life, not just a way of thinking. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFlynn sets the philosophy of existentialism in context, from the early phenomenologists, to its rise in the 40's and 50's, and the connections with National Socialism, Communism, and Feminism. He identifies the original definition of \"existentialism,\" which tends to be obscured by misappropriation, and highlights how the philosophy is still relevant in our world today.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Thomas Flynn\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0192804286\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780192804280\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press, USA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/06\/2006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 160\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 6.88h x 4.42w x 0.37d","brand":"Thomas Flynn","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44050767905023,"sku":"9780192804280","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8b40f22b-d238-47ae-a7d4-a4759980fe79.jpg?v=1685009129","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/existentialism-thomas-flynn-9780192804280","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
