From the tragic feeling of life to the plenitude of plenitudes in the philosophy of Miguel de Unamuno

Abstract

Miguel de Unamuno is a Spanish philosopher who has wondered about human existence and the meaning of life. From a very young age, he understood that life, being, and the consciousness of existence are constantly threatened by death, non-being, and nonexistence. All of this causes human beings with sad feelings, sadness, and agony. The agony that keeps us in a constant struggle between being and non-being does not disappear; it becomes an immortal yearning for immortality but finds a little comfort in the plenitude of plenitudes all plenitudes.
