What is Existentialism (Theological resources) about?

xii, 252 pages ; 24 cm There are already many excellent books on existentialism. Some of them deal with particular problem or particular existentialist writers. Most of those that deal with existentialism as a whole divide their subject-matter according to authors, presenting chapters on Kierkegaard, Heidegger, Sartre, and the rest. Thus I think that there is room for the present book, which attempts a comprehensive examination and evaluation of existentialism, but does so by thematic treatment. That is to say, each chapter deals with a major theme of existentialist philosophy, and these themes are arranged in the order of the existential dialect. Of course, each chapter is illustrated with material from the writings of existentialists, from Kierkegaard to Camus Includes bibliographical references (pages 239-246) The existentialist style of philosophy -- Existentialism and the history of philosophy -- The idea of existence -- Existence and world -- Existence and others -- Knowledge and understanding -- Thought and language -- Feeling -- Action -- Finitude and guilt -- In quest of authentic existence -- History and society -- Existentialist metaphysics -- Existentialist influence in
