Existentialism takes into consideration the underlying concepts:

• Human free will
• Human nature is chosen through life choices
• A person is best when struggling against their individual nature, fighting for life
• Decisions are not without stress and consequences
• There are things that are not rational
• Personal responsibility and discipline is crucial
• Society is unnatural and its traditional religious and secular rules are arbitrary
• Worldly desire is futile

• wealth, pleasure, or honor make the good life
• social values and structure control the individual
• accept what is and that is enough in life
• science can and will make everything better
• people are basically good but ruined by society or external forces
• “I want my way, now!” or “It is not my fault!” mentality

The human being, for Cassirer, is not simply the rational animal, but the animal whose experience with and reaction to the world is governed by symbolic relations.
Taken together, the Philosophy of Symbolic Forms is a grand narrative that exposits how various human experiences evolve out of an originally animalistic and primitive articulation of expressive signs into the complicated and more abstract forms of culture in the twenty-first century. ]]> 2017-12-05 17:37:37 UTC https://padlet.com/vermadevon/377y6zr37umf/wish/213413912 sorianobrandon https://padlet.com/vermadevon/377y6zr37umf/wish/213414564 a philosophical theory or approach that emphasizes the existence of the individual person as a free and responsible agent determining their own development through acts of the will.]]> 2017-12-05 17:38:59 UTC https://padlet.com/vermadevon/377y6zr37umf/wish/213414564 sorianobrandon https://padlet.com/vermadevon/377y6zr37umf/wish/213416710 2017-12-05 17:43:17 UTC https://padlet.com/vermadevon/377y6zr37umf/wish/213416710 sorianobrandon https://padlet.com/vermadevon/377y6zr37umf/wish/213421375 2017-12-05 17:51:12 UTC https://padlet.com/vermadevon/377y6zr37umf/wish/213421375 riosvictor https://padlet.com/vermadevon/377y6zr37umf/wish/213729144 "As in the Olympic Games it is not the most beautiful and the strongest that are crowned but those who compete, so those who act rightly win the noble and good things in life."

contemplative life is impossible without the appropriate social environment, and such an environment is impossible without the appropriate government.
