Existentialism on Trancendence - Dictionary of Arguments
Brocker I 300 Transcendence/Existentialism/Kuster: Transcendence refers to the power of human transgression towards infinite possibilities of existence. The individual is free in so far as it exists as a design of itself; neither is it initially bounded by a clearly defined core of being, nor is it teleologically designed for its unfolding, but rather its existence precedes the essence. It exists as what it is able to do in free Brocker I 301 choice of its possibilities in the world. Against this background, immanence is the greatest evil. >Immanence, >Transcendentals, >Existence.
