In Unamuno’s 2 nd chapter, he clearly defines what he means by the term a ‘tragic sense of life,’ “For living is one thing and knowing is another and, as we shall see, perhaps there is such an opposition between the two that we may say that everything vital is anti-rational, not merely irrational, and that everything rational is anti-vital.” This diagram separates Unamuno’s opposition with notes on what this must imply : If we are to come to an understanding of our lives as an existentialist, we must come to that understanding within the context of our own living & breathing existence. To conclude that a thinker is existentialist, we make the claim that their philosophy bases itself in the concerns of existence. Why do we propose Unamuno is an existentialist?-because he was concerned with existence, our corporeal existence. Unamuno’s 1912 book Tragic Sense of Life is an early expression of Spanish & European existentialism.
