Merab Konstantinovich Mamardashvili (1930–1990) is one of the most significant thinkers of the second half of the 20th century. This edition includes two lecture courses delivered by M. K. Mamardashvili to students of the Gerasimov Institute of Cinematography. In the lectures on ancient philosophy (1980), the focus is on the problem of existence arising in the space of ancient Greek thought. The author traces the fundamental principles in the reflections of Greek philosophers that form the basis of the ancient, and subsequently European, ideal of thinking and understanding the world and humanity. The lectures on contemporary European philosophy (1978–1979) are dedicated to the main underlying ideas that are the pillars of 20th-century philosophical culture. Referring to the works of Kierkegaard, Marx, Nietzsche, Freud, Husserl, Wittgenstein, Heidegger, Sartre, and others, M. K. Mamardashvili identifies ideas that permeate all directions, crystallizing them and thus creating a certain unity of style in contemporary philosophical thought.
