Tragic Sense of Life (Barnes & Noble Digital Library)

This edition includes a modern introduction and a list of suggested further reading.Miguel de Unamunos Tragic Sense of Life is a masterpiece of twentieth-century Spanish literature and an accessible introduction to existential philosophy.

He does not opt for heart over head, but for a paradoxical human being that embodies both.
