The author identifies the existentialist thinkers. After a review of the criticism (most of which does not consider Ortega an existentialist), the themes chosen are traced in his works, pointing out the ways in which he coincides with or differs from the usual existentialist treatment and attitudes. The body of the work is followed by an annotated bibliography of representative Ortegean criticism. | The Major Themes of Existentialism in the Work of Jos� Ortega y Gasset by Janet Winecoff D�az, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
