Sartre and the Search for Authenticity

In this episode, the Spinoza Triad, Dan Rowland, Dr. Richard Miller, and John Gibbs discuss Existentialism and some of the ideas of Jean-Paul Sartre. We explore how Existentialism emphasizes individual freedom and responsibility and how the anguish of existence is a central theme in Sartre's work. We conclude that while freedom can be both empowering and anxiety-inducing Existentialism offers insights into living in contemporary society. 00:00 Setting the Scene: Existentialism and Café Culture
