Outline:

In this lecture students understand the phenomenology as the method to investigate the human ‘truth’ as a ‘self-conviction’ or the human essence for one’s life. By this method, the death, the freedom and the desires are investigated as case studies. Students will be able to understand the method to analyze the matters phenomenologically and to find the essential significance the matters have for their own lives.
