[1ST ENG ED] Existentialist Philosophies: An Introduction
First English edition of Emmanuel Mounier’s exposition on Existentialism, translated from the original 1947 French edition by Eric Blow and published by Rockliff in London in 1948. 8vo, 142 pages, hardcover in pictorial dust jacket. Mounier, who studied literature and philosophy at the University of Grenoble and the Sorbonne, was a philosopher, Catholic theologian, teacher, and essayist, a leader of the French Personalist movement, and publisher of the journal Esprit. In the present work he examines the roots of existentialist thought along with its various branchings (the jacket cover depicts a flow chart in the form of a tree) and presents existentialism as a vital discourse in reconciling true living on the part of the individual with the demands of the group. Lean to spine and fraying to corners. Light bumping and rubbing to dj, with a few small closed tears.
