Wahl played a significant role, in some cases almost singlehandedly, in introducing French philosophy to movements like existentialism and American pragmatism and literature and thinkers like Hegel, Kierkegaard, Nietzsche, Jaspers, and Heidegger. Yet Wahl was also an original philosopher and poet in his own right. This volume of selections work from Wahl's philosophical writings makes a selection of his most important work available to the English-speaking philosophical community for the first time.
