Above all, Sartre (but any phenomenologist could do).

Franky, when I think of phenomenology in all its grimness I cannot help but to instantly think of Heidegger

his transcendental ontology isn't bleak at all though

if by his transcendental ontology you mean the ontology of dasein, honestly, I think it's incompatible with a minimal taste for the impersonal.

"...old, cold, boring frogs crawling round men and hopping into them as if they were in their element, namely a swamp". That is Dasein: the bleak swamp of the human.

What text is this from? I can't remember Heidegger ever getting that inventive with prose within Being and Time. In agreement with cyborgnomad here, Heidegger is actually quite hopeful.

The text is from the beginning of the Genealogy of Morals (Good and Evil, Good and Bad, 1). Hopeful for what? I find no joy in prioritizing the transcendentality of Man.
