The Existentialism - value, meaning and relevance booklet stems from Lecture V in the 10-part NMS lecture series. The booklet explores the history and development of existentialism within modernity, why and in what ways this tradition remains valuable to us and how it is relevant to understanding and responding to the problems we confront as a world today. It investigates the background, context and pre-history of the field, presents many of the significant figures and recurring themes and attempts to explain the contemporary relevance of existentialism through an NMS lens with a particular focus on our systems of higher education and their relationality to the public. The booklet is 41 pages in length and also contains a handy (and extensive) glossary of terms for ease of reference.
