5.0 out of 5 stars understandable philosophy, 25 April 1997

By A Customer

This review is from: Tragic Sense of Life (Paperback)

This book will answer your questions about the significance of life if there are answers.

Some examples of his ideas: Belief in UFOs and a divinity are similar to the extent that there is another consciousness out there. Beware of believing in something that we all so desperately want to believe!

Infinity and finiteness are both absurd notions if you ponder them a bit- if the Universe is infinite then how did it start. If it is finite then what happened just before if started? Our brains are simply limited.

Fascinating stuff about the relationship between love and death! If you read one more book before you die- let it be this one.

5.0 out of 5 stars philosophy for real men, 25 Sep 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Tragic Sense of Life (Paperback)

This isn't another book which tries to explain life (and death, religion, love, etc.) from a logical point of view. This a book written for men who live, suffer, love and get drunk sometimes. In other words, you don't have to have read a lot of philosophy before, you just have to live in this world, with its everyday troubles. If you like to read quality books, this is the one I recommend.

5.0 out of 5 stars A true existentialist workbook, 1 Mar 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Tragic Sense of Life (Paperback)

Miguel de Unamuno stops playing the same philosophical game with _The Tragic Sense of Life_.
Unamuno's agony over the significance of living is truly explored in this book, from atheism to Spanish mysticism, it will be found here.
I highly recommend this book. It is a wonderful addition to one's existentialism or philosophy of religion bookshelf.
