On existentialism

Abstract

One's pragmatism does not go so far as to affirm that success guarantees the truth of a doctrine. But I do believe - and this is a different thing - that meditating on its success or failure serves to understand, in a greater dimension of depth, the meaning and meaning of it. As far as today's philosophical currents are concerned, there is none that has achieved the popularity and success of existential philosophy. Why the success of this philosophy? Things are all the more strange because philosophy has never had too many supporters among the general public. Not because philosophy is alien to them; because every man, knows it or not, seems good or is outraged by it, Carries with him a certain philosophy. How is this possible? Very simple: because without philosophy, as without the oxygen that surrounds us all, life would be impossible for us. Explain why it can serve as an introduction to the subject of existentialism.
