Here I interview popular philosophy professor Dr Steven Taubeneck, who specializes in modern European thought. Dr Taubeneck studied directly under RIchard Rorty, and has given highly acclaimed lectures in both in European Studies and philosophy departments across North America.

In Part I of this interview, we discussed the origins of existentialism as a movement, beginning with Hegel, and continuing to the likes of Kierkegaard and Dostoyevsky. (See Part I: youtu.be/g0flzyym9-Y)

Here in Part II, we move on to a discussion of Heidegger, the emergence of post-modernism, the continental-analytic split in modern philosophy, and how each of these is related.

At the end of the interview, I ask Taubeneck to recommend a small handful of readings for those interested in pursuing these ideas further. He suggests the following three pieces:

Trotsky and The Wild Orchids -- Richard Rorty:

Plato's 'Symposium':

The Question Concerning Technology -- Martin Heigdegger:
