Karl Jaspers: Basic Philosophical Writings : Selections

....Jaspers is difficult reading in places but has a plenitude of existentially worthwhile ideas: historicity, Existenz, the Encompassing... worth the trouble. --Reviewer: Craig Chalquist, PhD (Escondido, CA USA)


Originally published in 1986, this selection of Karl Jaspers's writings has become a standard guided introduction to the scope and content of Jaspers's work.

Karl Jaspers (1883-1969) is one of the most original and seminal thinkers of the twentieth century. Rich in ideas, vast in scope, far-ranging and complex, his work is distributed over a large corpus of writing. In fact, it is just the very size and the range of his thought that have tended to make Jaspers inaccessible. The editors of this volume set out to provide a guided introduction to Jaspers through a systematic organization of selections from the whole of his writings.

The volume aims to convey an accurate presentation of the content and movement of Jaspers's philosophizing and to provide insights into the wide range of his philosophical achievements. The editors provide comments and information on each of the seventy-four selections to help set each piece within the context of the whole of Jaspers's work.

This is an invaluable introduction to Karl Jaspers's work for the student and the critical reader.
