Being and having : an existentialist diary by
Gabriel Marcel(
Book
)
93 editions published between 1935 and 2015 in 3 languages and held by 1,913 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
"Part of Marcel's 'metaphysical diary' and particularly valuable in showing how the major distinctions within which his thought has been moving germinated and developed. It is, I think, the most important single source of understanding Marcel's own viewpoint ... Not the least of this book's advantages is the fact that it includes many references to other thinkers who have influenced Marcel. In short, it affords an unusual and first-hand disclosure of a thinker's own self-understanding ... his thought, to my mind is deeply seminal and evocative, full of fresh statement and surprising insight, while never assertive or 'dogmatic'." [Roger Hazelton]

Creative fidelity by
Gabriel Marcel(
Book
)
66 editions published between 1940 and 2002 in 5 languages and held by 1,472 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
"This collection of lectures and essays was regarded by Gabriel Marcel as the best introduction to his thought. Outstanding in the richness of its analyses and in its application of Marcel's "concrete approach" to philosophical problems, Creative Fidelity not only deals with the perennial Marcellian themes of faith, fidelity, belief, incarnate being, and participation, but includes chapters on religious tolerance and orthodoxy and an important critical essay on Karl Jaspers." "Known in this country as a Christian existentialist, Marcel preferred to be called a "neo-Socratic", a label suggesting the dialogical, unfinished nature of his speculations. He may best be described as a reflective empiricist." -- Jacket

Presence and immortality by
Gabriel Marcel(
Book
)
26 editions published between 1959 and 2002 in 4 languages and held by 839 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
Philosophy is presented here as a search of truth, but a truth which by its very nature cannot be a human possession and therefore should not be treated as something one has. Rather, truth belongs to the realm of the existent. But what is the existent? Thus a certain restlessness permeates Marcel's search; the restlessness of the seeker who nostalgically longs for the peace and serenity offered by the security of a central anchorage

The fellowship of being: an essay on the concept of person in the philosophy of Gabriel Marcel by
John B O'Malley(
Book
)
3 editions published in 1966 in English and held by 6 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
This book is the fruit of a critical inquiry into the nature and scope of Marcel's philosophie achievement. As such, it is concerned less with affixing the appropriate label (personalist or existentialist) to Marcel's thought -and with it making it stick - than with discovering the precise impulse and tenor ofhis philosophy. In the process ofthat more general inquiry, the writer found being forced upon hirn a central concept as integrating focus of Marcel's philosophie investigations. This eoneept was that of the person. Gradually it emerged as a concept not only of prime importance for understanding the underlying harmony that pervades Marcel's professedly unsystematic researches, but equally as one of profound significanee for any philosophy that pretends adequately to aecount for human experienee. Furthermore, it seemed that the eoneept derived much ofthat significance from its acceptance precisely in the context of Marcel's thought. This feature ofMareel's philosophie writings alone is warrant enough for overeoming any initial embarrassment aroused in Anglo-Saxon breasts by his style. For, to speak candidly, that style is of a generation and a climate whose tastes little aecord with palates trained to a greater astringeney. Nor will Marcel's evident and unashamed coneern with life and its problems necessarily evoke a warm response in minds aceustomed to operate in an atmosphere of stricter and more aeademic reserve

"Gabriel Marcel," writes Professor Seymour Cain in this exceptionally penetrating study of the French existential philosopher, "belongs in the illustrious company of Martin Buber, Nicolas Berdyaev, and others who have struggled to renew and reintegrate the shattered human spirit in this terrible century." In his thoughtful appraisal of a thinker who deserves to be more widely read than he has been, the author examines and elucidates Marcel's philosophical writings as well as his vast, much neglected literary output. A complete bibliography of Marcel's writings is included. -- from back cover
