1. Existentialism 2 : self- consciousness Conscious awareness always has intentionality The phenomenological approach ‘brackets off’ any independent existence of mental objects

2. Subject-object dichotomy is wrong Self-consciousness is one (and science two) steps from reality ‘Dasein’: the fundamental position of the individual

3. How to live Be ‘authentic’ Existential ‘angst’ (anxiety) ‘Nihilism’ - there is no authority: values and so on must be created by individuals for themselves

4. ‘Radical freedom’ Being and nothingness Nothingness as the ‘subject’ of conscious thought At root, self-conscious beings are radically free

5. ‘Hell is other people’ The battle stemming from individuals exercising their will The requirement for authenticity; the ‘sin’ of bad faith Will to being leads to the will to freedom of all (ethics is possible)

6. The will to power ‘God is dead’ The will strives for power – ultimately this is self-mastery Superman and slave moralities
