It does not disappear. But how should we deal with this question today? The collection presents a wide range of approaches, discussing subjectivist and objectivist answers, confronting concepts of meaning with notions of happiness and morality, and considering the idea of human life's meaning both sub specie aeternitatis and in view of the world's finitude and contingency. The volume assembles contributions from leading scholars in the field, including John Cottingham, John Kekes, Iddo Landau, Dag T. Andersson, Robert B. Louden, Christoph Horn, and Bernard Reginster. 606 $aLife 606 $aMeaning (Philosophy) 615 0$aLife. 615 0$aMeaning (Philosophy) 676 $a128 20 701 $aHimmelmann$b Beatrix$f1959-$01592796 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910822812703321 996 $aOn meaning in life$94055465 997 $aUNINA
