Description

Seemingly everyone wants to be "authentic"! But, what does that mean? Contemporary existential philosophy provides us with different understandings that can be generally called, "French" and "German." The former associated with Simone de Beauvoir and Jean-Paul Sartre and the latter with Martin Heidegger. Which resonates more with you? After the episode pop over to corresponding Sartre video on YouTube (with this link: https://youtu.be/yNW667U1KmI) and share your thoughts!
