Summary: | Tunstall contends that Gabriel Marcel's reflective method is animated by two extraphilosophical commitments. Marcel's first extraphilosophical commitment is to an ethico-religious insight where the highest ontological exigency for human persons is to participate in being. Marcel's second extra-philosophical commitment is to battle the ever-present threat of dehumanisation in late Western modernity.
