Why Be Authentic?

About

Philosophers sometimes talk about authenticity in terms of "becoming what one is". But what does this really mean? And why should one want to do that at all?

Robyn Waller (Associate Professor of Philosophy, University of Sussex)
Philip Hojme (Assistant Professor of Philosophy, University of Warsaw)
