What Is Existentialism?
Guy Cleary: Buhvoir was an important feminist philosopher, especially at a time when that was not necessarily the popular position there. He says she's very much in this existentialist tradition and some people do dismiss it as sort of a mood of the 20th century. But he says we still have questions about why are we here? What should we do? How do we get along with other people? And so these are all very solid existential questions - which is one of the reasons why people like me continue to write books about existentialism.
