Gabriel Marcel (1889-1973) stands outside the traditional canon of
twentieth-century French philosophers. Where he is not simply
forgotten or overlooked, he is dismissed as a 'relentlessly
unsystematic' thinker, or, following Jean-Paul Sartre's lead,
labelled a 'Christian existentialist' - a label that avoids
consideration of Marcel's work on its own terms. How is one to
appreciate Marcel's contribution, especially when his uvre appears
to be at odds with philosophical convention? Helen Tattam proposes
a range of readings as opposed to one single interpretation, a
series of departures or explorations that bring his work into
contact with critical partners such as Henri Bergson, Paul Ric ur
and Emmanuel Levinas, and offer insights into a host of
twentieth-century philosophical shifts concerning time, the
subject, the other, ethics, and religion. Helen Tattam's ambitious
study is an impressively lucid account of Marcel's engagement with
the problem of time and lived experience, and is her first
monograph since the award of her doctorate from the University of
Nottingham.
