The Heideggers are a group of phenomenologists who, following the 
writings of Martin Heidegger, see the world as an indifferent and 
incomprehensible place, where the best solution is to follow one’s goals 
under the knowledge that death is certain and life is meaningless. The 
Heideggers attempt to uncover what lies beneath everyday 
experience. For them, the analysis of a person’s roles and purposes has 
more benefit than studying how people reference objects.
