Hardcover in dust jacket, FIRST EDITION stated, published 1962 by Atheneum. Publisher's "In The Lyrical Existentialists Thomas Hanna has blended scholarship with a sense of style in a fashion too infrequent in our time. Professor Hanna's book is a study of the writings of Kierkegaard, Nietzsche, and Camus. He finds in their work a common lyricism and a common mode of thought. For Mr. Hanna these three commanding figures constitute a unique presence in modern thought and poetry. Their characteristic blend of thought and poetry he calls Lyrical Existentialism. These three lyrical extentialists, Mr. Hanna finds, have had a pervasive and continuing influence in modern letters. They are, in his opinion, the authentic source of contemporary "existentialist" literature and philosophy. This is a scholarly book, but one so written that any intelligent reader interested in modern thought and literature can make his way happily."
