Existentialism is a kind of philosophical inquiry which explores the "nature of existence" by emphasising the "experience" of the subject of human" — not only the subject of thinking but the feeling,  acting, & living person. According to the existentialist, the point of departure of the person is marked by what was called "existential anguish," or the feeling of disorientation, uncertainty or fear in the face of a seemingly insignificant or "absurd world".

The common theme here is that all these philosphies are centered on the common theme "subject of human"

Explanation:

  1. A sophist  was a specific kind of teacher in ancient Greece, in the fifth and fourth centuries BC. Many sophists specialized in using the tools of "philosophy and rhetoric", though other sophists taught subjects such as music, athletics and mathematics. In general, they claimed to teach arete ("excellence" or "virtue", applied to various subject areas), predominantly to young statesmen and nobility.
  2. David Hume 's scientific skepticism and analytical theories of understanding are well recognized, but he made other valuable contributions to moral philosophy. Hume 's ethical thinking is concerned with the connection between moral and rationality, the role of human feeling in thought and practice, the essence of moral judgment, human sociability, and the sense of leading a virtuous life. The theoretical philosophy of Hume produces several metaphysical positions that are distinctive. He opposes the rationalist definition of morality where individuals make moral assessments and, purely by reason, recognize the good and the unjust.
  3. Nietzsche has had immense influence on the culture and philosophy of Western art through his writing of reality, moralism, literature, esthetics, cultural thought, nature, nihilism, power, morality and the essence of life. Nietzsche believed that the ideal individual would develop a self-confidence in his personality without relying on something that transcends life — such as Heaven or a spirit. This way of life should be maintained, particularly though a radical view of eternity is to be followed more difficultly and implies that all things have "eternal recurrence."
