Philosophy of Life explores the intellectual movement Lebensphilosophie, which flourished in Germany from 1870 until 1920, led by Nietzsche, Dilthey, and Simmel. This was the first Western intellectual movement to develop an entirely secular and humanist conception of life, believing that the meaning of life had to be found in life itself.
