Jaspers
German-Swiss philosopher and psychiatrist. As a research psychiatrist, he helped establish psychopathology on a rigorous, scientifically descriptive basis, especially in his General Psychopathology (1913). He taught philosophy at the Univ. of Heidelberg from 1921 until 1937, when the Nazi regime forbade him to work. From 1948 he lived in Switzerland, teaching at the Univ. of Basel. In his magnum opus, Philosophy (3 vols., 1969), he expounds his view that the aim of philosophy is practical; its purpose is the fulfillment of human existence (Existenz). For Jaspers, philosophical illumination is achieved in the experience of limit situations that define the human condition--conflict, guilt, suffering, and death--and that in mankind's confrontation with these extremes it achieves its existential humanity. One of the most important existentialists, he approached the subject from mankind's direct concern with his own existence.
