About this listen

 Join two esteemed existential thinkers in dialogue as they discuss life stages, therapist humility, causes and interconnection, how to ask questions, death, spatiality, figure/ground, identity, art and how this all relates to existential therapy. Prompted by a conversation that started at a dinner party, Ernesto Spinelli and Gianfranco Buffardi take up a series of ten wide-ranging discussions that they share with the reader. This features an introduction and afterword by editor, therapist and dinner-party host Paola Pomponi. Paola comments, "Existential Therapy employs debate and dialogue through posing questions rather than formulating statements. The basic issue that brings therapist and client together, is the tension meaning/meaninglessness, because humans have a need of making sense of their experiences. What is the meaning of life? If the question could be rated it would probably rank as one of the most frequently asked questions. Finding the answer triggers one of the most creative processes one can experience, and, at times, perhaps one of the most frustrating. Reading through the Dialogues, exchanged by two influential Existential therapists, we encounter meaning's many possible dwellings. Arts, science, nature, despair and loss may all offer their own meaning. There are times however, when meaning eludes us and life becomes grey and unbearable. Learning the resilience to shift from meaning to meaninglessness may be the secret of life's continuous reshaping and renewing. Perhaps the meaning of life resides in the very pursuit of it." The contributors have kindly donated all proceeds from sales to the Society for Existential Analysis, a registered charity. Psychology Psychology & Mental Health
