Being and Presence is an ontological essay. This meaning it is a work dealing with existence and being with a focus on the quality of presence from an existentialist point of departure. For the aspiring existentialist this is a handbook, a guide to being for Itself and the demands such an existence de facto poses. Every section of the essay is exemplified by a brief prosaic example to illustrate terms or ideas under scrutiny.
