Your reality is "being in the world". If your a existentialist your reality is your own choice, not what others think or believe. To you knowing is to make a personal choice, on anything. your destiny is death you presence is whatever the current temp is. Your values are created through your own choice. It's all about choice. You tend to keep moving when something goes bad, cause it's your choice to, while others might stay down and sad YOU tend to brush off and move on.
existentialism is a freedom of choice
Existentialism is a philosophy and postmodernism was an art form/movement
Existentialism and realism share a common element in that the "self" is a major focus
yes
The Existentialism period was from the late 1930's to the late 1950's, roughly. Hope this helped :)
Existentialism helps you to face life as it is, while actively living in a manner that makes a contribution to that reality. Existentialism challenges each person to be aware of the fundamental realities of existence and to live fully in the experience of that reality without denial or fantasy.
False. This is partly true, as we can see in some existential writer's ideas, but a big part of existentialism is the acceptance of the solid facts of reality. Rather than ascertain that life's meaning is entirely relative, existentialism propogates that it is your meaning that matters most. For example, a man who wants to be a bird can never be a bird. They are structurally two different things, but in existentialism, it doesn't MATTER that he is not a bird. If the aforementioned person truly beleives in his heart and mind that he is a bird, then it makes very little difference because parts of reality come from our sense experiences.
Atheism is not a philosophy, it is a disbelief in gods, demons, angles, visitng aliens from outer space, etc. As far as reality goes with atheists, we exist, therefore we are real.

Most atheists I know are not into philosophy, except empiricism.

Transcendentalism: a philosophy that emphasizes the a priori conditions of knowledge and experience or the unknowable character of ultimate reality or that emphasizes the transcendent as the fundamental reality Existentialism: a philosophical theory or approach that emphasizes the existence of the individual person as a free and responsible agent determining their own development through acts of the will. Deriving from these statements, trans is concerned with what could be understood as experience of ultimate reality that stresses it's binding of transient nature of fundamental reality. Meanwhile existent is concerned with individual responsibility by nature of luminous existence to developing actions of choiceness or such.
Atheists have friends like anyone else; existentialism is irrelevant.
It does no such thing ! You may want to read about philosophy to learn what existentialism is.
