• Extra informatie: - This existentialist work by French philosopher Gabriel Marcel (1889-1973) explores the human condition through the lens of hope, faith, and metaphysical inquiry. Blending phenomenology with Christian existentialism, Marcel contrasts despair and alienation with the capacity for fidelity, presence, and hope. Rejecting abstract systems, he emphasizes lived experience, interpersonal relationships, and the spiritual dimension of being. The book was written in post-World War II Europe, reflecting the moral and existential crises of the time. Marcel’s thought stands in contrast to more atheistic existentialists like Sartre, offering a theistic and relational alternative rooted in openness to transcendence. The work is both a critique of modern alienation and a meditation on what it means to journey meaningfully through human life.
