  • More about The Routledge International Handbook of Existential Human Science

This handbook explores existentialism as an epistemology and method, considering the nature of human subjectivity and the connections between individuals' imagination of the world and their everyday practice. It offers a comprehensive survey of existential human science, appealing to scholars across the humanities and social sciences.

Length: 304 pages
Publication date: 01 August 2023
Publisher: Taylor & Francis Ltd


This groundbreaking volume is the first comprehensive handbook to explore existentialism as an epistemology and methodological approach. Spanning multiple disciplines, it delves into the essence of human subjectivity and the appropriate ways to study human experience. It examines the intricate connections between individuals' worldviews and their daily practices, shedding light on the question of whether humans possess inherent self-knowledge or whether their understanding of themselves is shaped through shared constructs with others. By addressing this fundamental inquiry, the handbook facilitates the recognition of core questions that guide the methods and orientations of an existential inquiry.

In addition to providing a historical exposition, the handbook includes a diverse range of chapters from around the world, showcasing the diverse global spaces for and different types of existential focus and discussion. This exploration challenges the notion that the existential problem is solely a concern of the post-enlightenment West, broadening the scope of the discourse.

The Routledge International Handbook of Existential Human Science is a comprehensive and authoritative survey of what human beings can and should make of themselves. It appeals to scholars across the humanities and social sciences, including anthropology, sociology, philosophy, and research methods. This volume offers a rich tapestry of insights and perspectives, providing a valuable resource for scholars seeking to deepen their understanding of existentialism and its implications for human science.
