Jean-Paul Sartre
Jean-Paul Charles Aymard Sartre was a French philosopher, playwright, novelist, screenwriter, political activist, biographer, and literary critic, considered a leading figure in 20th-century French philosophy and Marxism. Sartre was one of the key figures in the philosophy of existentialism (and phenomenology). His work has influenced sociology, critical theory, post-colonial theory, and literary studies. He was awarded the 1964 Nobel Prize in Literature despite attempting to refuse it, saying that he always declined official honors and that "a writer should not allow himself to be turned into an institution."Sartre held an open relationship with prominent feminist and fellow existentialist philosopher Simone de Beauvoir. Together, Sartre and de Beauvoir challenged the cultural and social assumptions and expectations of their upbringings, which they considered bourgeois, in both lifestyles and thought. The conflict between oppressive, spiritually destructive conformity (mauvaise foi, literally, 'bad faith') and an "authentic" way of "being" became the dominant theme of Sartre's early work, a theme embodied in his principal philosophical work Being and Nothingness (L'Être et le Néant, 1943). Sartre's introduction to his philosophy is his work Existentialism Is a Humanism (L'existentialisme est un humanisme, 1946), originally presented as a lecture.

Anti-Semite and Jew: An Exploration of the Etiology of Hate
Jean-Paul Sartre
With a new preface by Michael Walzer
Jean-Paul Sartre's book is a brilliant portrait of both anti-Semite and Jew, written by a non-Jew and from a non-Jewish point of view. Nothing of the anti-Semite either in his subtle form as a snob, or in his crude form as a gangster, escapes Sartre's sharp eye, and the whole problem of the Jew's relationship to the Gentile is examined in a concrete and living way, rather than in terms of sociological abstractions.
A puerta cerrada
Jean-Paul Sartre
Jean-Paul Sartre fue un filosofo, escritor, novelista, dramaturgo, activista politico, biografo y critico literario frances, exponente del existencialismo y del marxismo humanista. Fue el decimo escritor frances seleccionado como Premio Nobel de Literatura, en 1964, pero lo rechazo explicando en una carta a la Academia Sueca que el tenia por regla declinar todo reconocimiento o distincion y que los lazos entre el hombre y la cultura debian desarrollarse directamente, sin pasar por las instituciones. Fue pareja de la tambien filosofa Simone de Beauvoir."
Barioná, el Hijo del Trueno
Jean-Paul Sartre
Los biógrafos y estudiosos de la obra de Sartre ocultan, deliberadamente o no, la existencia de Barioná. La primera obra de teatro del conocido escritor ateo existencialista tuvo como tema central la Navidad. Su tema preferido, la libertad humana, queda en ella enmarcado en la acción más dramática del la encarnación de Dios. Todos los elementos del drama están ternura, libertad, rebelión, redención, vida y muerte. El ateo Sastre nos conduce magistralmente a la admiración del misterio de Belén y al compromiso existencial con Cristo que salva.
Baudelaire

Being and Nothingness
Jean-Paul Sartre
Being & Nothingness is without doubt one of the most significant philosophical books of the 20th century. The central work by one of the century's most influential thinkers, it altered the course of western philosophy. Its revolutionary approach challenged all previous assumptions about the individual's relationship with the world. Known as 'the Bible of existentialism', its impact on culture & literature was immediate & was felt worldwide, from the absurdist drama of Samuel Beckett to the soul-searching cries of the Beat poets.
Being & Nothingness is one of those rare books whose influence has affected the mindset of subsequent generations. Seventy years after its 1st publication, its message remains as potent as ever--challenging readers to confront the fundamental dilemmas of human freedom, choice, responsibility & action.
Being and Nothingness: An Essay on Phenomenological Ontology (Routledge Classics)
Jean-Paul Sartre
Being and Nothingness may well be thought of as Sartre's greatest work; it has also come to be regarded as a text-book of existentialism itself, and this is for many reasons a proper way to read it. These pages set out with relative perspicuity almost all of the salient ideas of existentialism; and, in addition, the method according to which the book is composed is itself highly characteristic of existentialist philosophers."

Critica de la razon dialectica, Vol.1 (Obras Maestras Del Pensamiento) (Spanish Edition)
Jean-Paul Sartre
La clarificacion de las relaciones entre el marxismo y el existencialismo es uno de los problemas basicos de esta obra. La tarea de Sartre ha consistido en escribir un libro de Sociologia en el que estudia el grupo social dialectica y existencialmente.
Critique of Dialectical Reason, Vol 1: Theory of Practical Ensembles
Jean-Paul Sartre
At the height of the Algerian war, Jean-Paul Sartre embarked on a fundamental reappraisal of his philosophical and political thought. The result was the Critique of Dialectical Reason, an intellectual masterpiece of the twentieth century, now republished with a major original introduction by Fredric Jameson. In it, Sartre set out the basic categories for the renovated theory of history that he believed was necessary for post-war Marxism.Sartre’s formal aim was to establish the dialectical intelligibility of history itself, as what he called ‘a totalisation without a totaliser’. But, at the same time, his substantive concern was the structure of class struggle and the fate of mass movements of popular revolt, from the French Revolution at the end of the eighteenth century to the Russian and Chinese revolutions in the twentieth: their ascent, stabilisation, petrification and decline, in a world still overwhelmingly dominated by scarcity.
Der Ekel
Jean-Paul Sartre
Für Antoine Roquentin, Einzelgänger und Außenseiter in einer Provinzstadt, verliert das Leben plötzlich seine Selbstverständlichkeit. Unnachsichtig um Selbsterforschung bemüht, versucht er seinem immer stärkeren Ekel vor Dingen und Menschen auf den Grund zu gehen. Die Erfahrungen, Empfindungen und Visionen des Helden dieses ersten und bedeutendsten Romans des Existentialismus gaben Anstöße zu einer neuen Lebensphilosophie, die bis heute nichts von ihrer Brisanz eingebüßt hat.
Die Kindheit Eines Chefs. Erzählungen
Jean-Paul Sartre
"Niemand will sich der Existenz stellen", sagt Sartre in einem Begleittext zur ersten Ausgabe dieses Erzählbandes. In ihm schildert er Menschen in sehr unterschiedlichen Grenzsituationen: Pablo, den Republikaner im Spanischen Bürgerkrieg, der versucht, seine Freiheit über den Tod hinweg zu retten, Eve, die in die Wahnwelt ihres geistesgestörten Mannes eindringen will, Paul, der die Menschen durch ein schockierendes Verbrechen zu erschüttern vorhat, Lulu, die einer Selbsttäuschung erliegt, und Lucien, der vor seiner Rolle als Chef flieht.
Meisterhafte Erzählungen, ein wichtiger Mosaikstein im Werk des bedeutenden Schriftstellers und Philosophen.
Egzystencjalizm jest humanizmem (Spectrum)
Jean-Paul Sartre
Ale istnieje inny rodzaj humanizmu, który może być rozumiany zasadniczo w ten sposób: człowiek stale wychodzi poza siebie, projektując siebie I gubiąc się poza sobą - stwarza własne istnienie; z drugiej strony może istnieć dążąc do właśnie do celów transcendentalnych. Człowiek będąc tym przekroczeniem siebie, wyjściem poza siebie i nie pojmując rzeczy inaczej, jak w związku z tym wyjściem poza siebie, sam tkwi w centrum, w sercu tego przekroczenia (depassement). Nie istnieje żadna powszechność poza powszechnością ludzką, poza powszechnością subiektywności ludzkiej. Ten związek transcendencji jako podstawy człowieka (nie w sensie takim, w jakim Bóg jest transcendentalny, lecz w sensie wyjścia poza siebie) oraz subiektywności w tym znaczeniu, że człowiek nie jest zamknięty w sobie, lecz zawsze jest obecny we wszechświecie ludzkim - to właśnie nazywamy humanizmem egzystencjalistycznym.
El existencialismo es un humanismo
Jean-Paul Sartre
"El existencialismo es un humanismo" se ha convertido en un clásico del pensamiento occidental del siglo XX, sobre todo porque en él aparecen expuestas de una forma clara y accesible, no sólo el pensamiento de Jean-Paul Sartre sino también las propuestas fundamentales del existencialismo. En cierto sentido, este breve texto resume las claves de toda la obra sartreana posterior, pues el pensador francés se mantuvo siempre fiel a los principios básicos trazados en él. El pensamiento de Sartre se revela como un instrumento muy útil para afrontar el presente.
El ser y la Nada
Jean-Paul Sartre
«El Ser y la Nada» es la obra donde Jean-Paul Sartre expone técnica y acabadamente su "existencialismo" y aquella que facilita la plena comprensión de su obra literaria. La primera edición francesa fue publicada en 1943, es decir, en el seno de una Europa arrasada por la guerra. Sartre tenía entonces 38 años y ya había escrito tres obras de carácter filosófico en las cuales explicaba el método de Husserl con vistas a la constitución de una psicología fenomenológica.Había publicado también su primera novela, La náusea, y una serie de cuentos, El muro. A partir de ese momento la producción de Sartre se sucederá sin pausa, abarcando todas las modalidades del pensamiento y de la literatura, pero las tesis centrales de este ensayo de ontología fenomenológica seguirán nutriendo y otorgando significado a tan diversificada producción. Y lo que en sus comienzos fue pura expresión teórica desbordó el ámbito especializado para convertirse, con el nombre de existencialismo, en uno de los fenómenos culturales más importantes de la segunda mitad del siglo pasado.
El traductor Juan Valmar ha considerado conveniente, tanto para una previa aproximación al libro como para ulterior referencia, la compilación de un utilísimo índice terminológico y temático, que enriquece la edición.

Existentialism and Humanism
Jean-Paul Sartre
Varoluşçuluk nedir?
Bugüne değin çeşitli yanıtlar verilmiş bir sorudur bu. Sözgelişi, Weil’e göre varoluşçuluk bir bunalım, Mounier’ye göre umutsuzluk, Hamelin’e göre bunaltı, Banfi’ye göre kötümserlik, Wahl’e göre başkaldırış, Marcel’e göre özgürlük, Lukács’a göre idealizm, Benda’ya göre usdışılık, Foulqué’ye göre saçmalık felsefesidir.
Bir dönem, slogancı gençliğin peygamberi ve ‘varoluşçu papası’ sayılan J.-P. Sartre’a göreyse, varoluş, insanda, ama yalnız insanda, özden önce gelir. Bu demektir ki insan önce vardır; sonra şöyle ya da böyle olur. Çünkü o, özünü kendisi yaratır. Nasıl mı? Şöyle: “Dünyaya atılarak, orada acı çekerek, savaşarak yavaş yavaş kendini belirler. Bu belirleme yolu hiç kapanmaz…”
Asım Bezirci’nin çevirip yayıma hazırladığı bu eser her kuramda, her inanda farklı karşılıklar bulan bir felsefenin temel metnini (Varoluşçuluk Bir İnsancılıktır / Sartre) ve bunun yanı sıra Gaéton Picon ve Laffont Bompiani’ nin Varoluşçuluk’a ilişkin incelemeleriyle P.

Existentialisme is humanisme
Jean-Paul Sartre
Met die woorden kondigde Jean-Paul Sartre in 1945 een nieuwe filosofie aan die de wereld stormenderhand zou veroveren: het existentialisme. Daarin heeft de mens geen doel, geen bestaansreden, geen essentie. Hij moet zijn existentie zelf vormgeven: « Je bent vrij, je moet kiezen », zegt Sartre tegen hem. Maar je kiest niet alleen voor jezelf. Je keuze laat zien welke wereld je eigenlijk wilt. Je vrijheid is daarmee volgens Sartre tegelijk je opdracht: « Een wereld waarin de mens beslist over zijn eigen zijn en over dat van de anderen. »
Driekwart eeuw later is Sartres filosofie nog even actueel. Het kleine en beroemde werk dat tal van mensen de grondgedachten van het existentialisme bijbracht, is nu opnieuw beschikbaar, in een nieuwe vertaling van Ger Groot.
Jean-Paul Sartre (1905–1980) was de bekendste filosoof van het existentialisme. Hij schreef tal van romans, toneelstukken en wijsgerige studies. Dit boek betekende zijn filosofische doorbraak bij het grote publiek en geldt als een filosofische klassieker.
Existentialism is a Humanism
Jean-Paul Sartre
It was to correct common misconceptions about his thought that Jean-Paul Sartre, the most dominent European intellectual of the post-World War II decades, accepted an invitation to speak on October 29, 1945, at the Club Maintenant in Paris. The unstated objective of his lecture (“Existentialism Is a Humanism”) was to expound his philosophy as a form of “existentialism,” a term much bandied about at the time. Sartre asserted that existentialism was essentially a doctrine for philosophers, though, ironically, he was about to make it accessible to a general audience. The published text of his lecture quickly became one of the bibles of existentialism and made Sartre an international celebrity.
The idea of freedom occupies the center of Sartre’s doctrine. Man, born into an empty, godless universe, is nothing to begin with. He creates his essence—his self, his being—through the choices he freely makes (“existence precedes essence”). Were it not for the contingency of his death, he would never end. Choosing to be this or that is to affirm the value of what we choose. In choosing, therefore, we commit not only ourselves but all of mankind.
This book presents a new English translation of Sartre’s 1945 lecture and his analysis of Camus’s The Stranger, along with a discussion of these works by acclaimed Sartre biographer Annie Cohen-Solal. This edition is a translation of the 1996 French edition, which includes Arlette Elkaïm-Sartre’s introduction and a Q&A with Sartre about his lecture.
Geschlossene Gesellschaft
Jean-Paul Sartre
Stück in einem Akt
"Geschlossene Gesellschaft": Drei Personen, die im Leben einander nie begegnet sind, werden nach ihrem Tod für alle Ewigkeit in einem Hotelzimmer zusammensein. Das ist die Hölle. "Wenn meine Beziehungen schlecht sind, begebe ich mich in die totale Abhängigkeit von anderen. Und dann bin ich tatsächlich in der Hölle. Und es gibt eine Menge Leute auf der Welt, die in der Hölle sind, weil sie zu sehr vom Urteil anderer abhängen." (Jean-Paul Sartre)
Huis clos
Jean-Paul Sartre
No exit, unabridged. Edition of Sartre's well known existentialist novel.
Huis Clos and Other Plays
Jean-Paul Sartre
These three plays, diverse in subject but thematically coherent, illuminate one of Sartre's major philosophical concerns: the struggle to live and act freely in a complex and constricting world. Lucifer and the Lord, Sartre's favourite among his plays, explores this theme in depth, dealing in the process with fundamental questions of faith and disillusionment; in Huis Clos - arguably Sartre's most important play - he contends that 'Hell is other people', and details the afterlife of three souls trapped together in locked room and the torments that they inflict on each other; while The Respectable Prostitute, set in the Deep South of America, is concerned with racism, subjugation and the demands of conscience.
Huis clos: suivi de Les Mouches
Jean-Paul Sartre
«Garcin : - Le bronze... (Il le caresse.) Eh bien, voici le moment. Le bronze est là, je le contemple et je com prends que je suis en enfer. Je vous dis que tout était prévu. Ils avaient prévu que je me tiendrais devant cette cheminée, pressant ma main sur ce bronze, avec tous ces regards sur moi. Tous ces regards qui me mangent... (Il se retourne brusquement.) Ha ! vous n'êtes que deux ? Je vous croyais beaucoup plus nombreuses. (Il rit.) Alors, c'est ça l'enfer. Je n'aurais jamais cru... Vous vous rappelez : le soufre, le bûcher, le gril... Ah ! quelle plaisanterie. Pas besoin de gril : l'enfer, c'est les Autres.»
Il muro
Jean-Paul Sartre
Il muro uscito in Francia nel 1939, a un anno di distanza da La nausea, è probabilmente l'opera letteraria più forte e rappresentativa del grande intellettuale francese. Motivo comune dei racconti riuniti in questo volume è l'antitesi tra coraggio e viltà: una diversa attitudine, di fronte alla vita dei diversi personaggi, che un febbrile monologo interiore svela in un attimo oscuro del loro destino. Il muro dinanzi al quale i condannati troveranno la morte, le pareti delle stanze che chiudono tragici misteri sessuali e delittuosi, le storture e le ipocrisie sociali che avvelenano una coscienza al suo nascere e la preparano ad una sorte colpevole, sono i molteplici aspetti di questa realtà allucinata.
Intimacy and other stories
Jean-Paul Sartre
Intimacy and other stories by Jean Paul sartre
Iron In The Soul
Jean-Paul Sartre
June 1940 was the summer of defeat for the French soldiers, deserted by their officers, utterly demoralized, awaiting the Armistice. Day by day, hour by hour, Iron in the Soul unfolds what men thought and felt and did as France fell. Men who shrugged, men who ran, men who fought and tragic men like Mathieu, who had dedicated his life to finding personal freedom, now overwhelmed by remorse and bitterness, who must learn to kill. Iron in the Soul, the third volume of Sartre's Roads to Freedom Trilogy, is a harrowing depiction of war and what it means to lose.
La morte nell'anima
Jean-Paul Sartre
I nazisti occupano Parigi, l'esercito francese è in rotta, la Francia, sbandata, sembra destinata a scomparire dalla carta geografica, inglobata in un Europa dominata da Hitler. Tutti si trovano improvvisamente a dover scegliere tra la vita e la morte, tra la degradazione e l'eroismo. Ne "La morte dell'anima" Jean-Paul Sartre delinea il percorso di un gruppo di intellettuali, tra cui emerge simbolicamente la figura di Mathieu. Professore di filosofia coinvolto suo malgrado nella guerra, estraneo alla sua logica così com'era stato estraneo ai valori di quella Francia che la guerra aveva voluto, Mathieu osserva con impotente lucidità la propria disperazione, lo sfacelo umano dei suoi compagni, incerto tra la pietà e il disgusto. E' un'isolata azione di guerra, a pochi giorni dall'armistizio, a dargli l'occasione del suo riscatto: dall'alto di un campanile, Mathieu, rischiando la vita, spara sui nazisti. Può così finalmente saldare il conto con se stesso, ribellarsi contro la propria impotenza e contro l'ipocrisia della società in cui aveva vissuto. Sono 15 minuti di resistenza, di rivolta, di libertà: "un'immensa rivincita".
La nausea
Jean-Paul Sartre
La nausea (1938) ha dato origine a quanto affermava il suo autore Jean-Paul Sartre, recensendo un romanzo di Faulkner: «I buoni romanzi finiscono per somigliare moltissimo ai fenomeni naturali; si dimentica il loro autore, li si accetta come pietre o alberi, perché ci sono, perché esistono». Piú di mezzo secolo dopo la sua pubblicazione, questo romanzo trasgressivo e ricchissimo ci restituisce il disagio della pace in agonia in Francia, nell’Europa, nel mondo alla vigilia della Seconda guerra mondiale: il libro piú libero di Sartre, il libro piú disinteressato e piú appassionato insieme.
La nausée
Jean-Paul Sartre
Donc j'étais tout à l'heure au Jardin public. La racine du marronnier s'enfonçait dans la terre, juste au-dessous de mon banc. Je ne me rappelais plus que c'était une racine. Les mots s'étaient évanouis et, avec eux, la signification des choses, leurs modes d'emploi, les faibles repères que les hommes ont tracés à leur surface. J'étais assis, un peu voûté, la tête basse, seul en face de cette masse noire et noueuse entièrement brute et qui me faisait peur. Et puis j'ai eu cette illumination. Ça m'a coupé le souffle. Jamais, avant ces derniers jours, je n'avais pressenti ce que voulait dire " exister ".
Le diable et le bon dieu
Jean-Paul Sartre
Dans cette pièce de théâtre, c'est bien la question du choix qui se trouve au centre de la réflexion proposée, question du choix inévitablement corrélée à la question de la liberté, motif qui s'impose comme un véritable leitmotiv dans toute l'œuvre de Sartre. Le diable et le bon dieu est une pièce fortement empreinte par le thème de la cruauté, une cruauté qui se veut multiple. C'est ces diverses formes que peut prendre la cruauté que nous livre ici l'auteur. Il se demande comment la mise en évidence de la cruauté permet de servir sa propre réflexion.
Le mosche - Porta chiusa
Jean-Paul Sartre
"Le mosche" e "Porta chiusa" sono tra i testi più significativi del teatro esistenzialista, due sguardi sull'abisso, due drammi che affrontano alcuni dei temi più cari a Sartre: la libertà, il valore delle scelte, il rapporto con gli altri e il senso dell'esistenza. "Le mosche" (1943), singolare rifacimento delle "Coefore" di Eschilo, ha per protagonista Oreste, il giustiziere matricida che prende su di sé, con atto di personale responsabilità, il rimorso di Egisto e dell'intera città di Argo per l'assassinio di Agamennone. Compiuta la vendetta, Oreste tornerà alla sua solitudine e con lui si allontaneranno anche le mosche, simbolica materializzazione del rimorso collettivo. "Porta chiusa" (1944) è quasi un manifesto dell'impossibilità del rapporto interpersonale: "l'enfer c'est les autres", l'inferno sono gli altri, scrive Sartre. La porta attraverso la quale vengono introdotti i tre ospiti-prigionieri in realtà non è affatto chiusa, ma la vera prigionia è sancita dal cerchio infernale dei rapporti, dall'impossibilità di comunicare nonostante la necessità vitale della convivenza.
Le mur
Jean-Paul Sartre
«- Comment s'appellent-ils, ces trois-là ?
- Steinbock, Ibbieta et Mirbal, dit le gardien.
Le commandant mit ses lorgnons et regarda sa liste :
- Steinbock... Steinbock... Voilà. Vous êtes condamné à mort.
Vous serez fusillé demain matin.
Il regarda encore :
- Les deux autres aussi, dit-il.
- C'est pas possible, dit Juan. Pas moi.
Le commandant le regarda d'un air étonné...»
Les jeux sont faits
Jean-Paul Sartre
- Il m'a empoisonnée ?
- Eh oui, madame.
- Mais pourquoi ? pourquoi ?
- Vous le gêniez, répond la vieille dame. Il a eu votre dot. Maintenant il lui faut celle de votre sœur.
Ève joint les mains dans un geste d'impuissance et murmure, accablée :
- Et Lucette est amoureuse de lui !
La vieille dame prend alors une mine de circonstance :
- Toutes mes condoléances... Mais voulez-vous me donner une signature ?
Machinalement, Ève se lève, se penche sur le registre et signe.
- Parfait, conclut la vieille dame. Vous voilà morte officiellement.
Ève hésite, puis s'informe :
- Mais où faut-il que j'aille ?
- Où vous voudrez. Les morts sont libres.
Les Mains sales
Jean-Paul Sartre
« Comme tu tiens à ta pureté, mon petit gars ! Comme tu as peur de te salir les mains. Eh bien, reste pur ! A quoi cela servira-t-il et pourquoi viens-tu parmi nous ? La pureté, c'est une idée de fakir et de moine. Vous autres, les intellectuels, les anarchistes bourgeois, vous en tirez prétexte pour ne rien faire. Ne rien faire, rester immobile, serrer les coudes contre le corps, porter des gants. Moi j'ai les mains sales. Jusqu'aux coudes. Je la ai plongées dans la merde et dans le sang. »
Créée en 1948 au théâtre Antoine par François Périer et André Luguet, Les Mains sales, pièce sur l'engagement politique, est une des œuvres théâtrales les plus retentissantes de l'auteur de Huis clos, des Mouches, de La Putain respectueuse, des Séquestrés d'Altona, du Diable et le bon Dieu.
Les Mots
Jean-Paul Sartre
«J'ai commencé ma vie comme je la finirai sans doute : au milieu des livres. Dans le bureau de mon grand-père, il y en avait partout ; défense était de les faire épousseter sauf une fois l'an, avant la rentrée d'octobre. Je ne savais pas encore lire que, déjà, je les révérais, ces pierres levées : droites ou penchées, serrées comme des briques sur les rayons de la bibliothèque ou noblement espacées en allées de menhirs, je sentais que la prospérité de notre famille en dépendait...»
Les mouches
Jean-Paul Sartre
The Flies (French: Les Mouches) is a play by Jean-Paul Sartre, written in 1943. It is an adaptation of the Electra myth, previously used by the Greek playwrights Sophocles, Aeschylus and Euripides. The play recounts the story of Orestes and his sister Electra in their quest to avenge the death of their father Agamemnon, king of Argos, by killing their mother Clytemnestra and her husband Aegisthus, who had deposed and killed him.
Sartre incorporates an existentialist theme into the play, having Electra and Orestes engaged in a battle with Zeus and his Furies, who are the gods of Argos and the centerpiece for self-abnegating religious rituals. This results in fear and a lack of autonomy for Zeus's worshippers, who live in constant shame of their humanity.
Les séquestrés d'Altona
Jean-Paul Sartre
The Condemned of Altona is an act of judgment on the twentieth century, which might have been an admirable era (the closing lines tell us) if man had not been threatened by 'the cruel enemy who had sworn to destroy him, that hairless, evil, flesh-eating beast--man himself. 'All the characters in the play are defendants, trapped inside the frame of the proscenium as securely as Eichmann within his glass cage in Jerusalem; their judge is the past, and its verdict is without mercy. Two death penalties are imposed, and one sentence of solitary confinement for life. The stage, as so often in M. Sartre's hands, becomes a place of moral inquisition, at once a courtroom and a prison.
L'età della ragione (Tascabili Narrativa) (Italian Edition)
Jean-Paul Sartre
Set in France during the days immediately before World War II, this is the story of Mathieu, a French professor of philosophy obsessed with the idea of freedom. Translated from the French by Eric Sutton.
L'être et le néant : essai d'ontologie phénoménologique
Jean-Paul Sartre
Ce chef-d'oeuvre de la philosophie française de tradition cartésienne, devenu le livre culte des existentialistes, porte l'empreinte d'un dialogue critique avec la philosophie allemande (Hegel, Husserl, Heidegger). À la phénoménologie, il emprunte son vocabulaire technique, mais aussi les sophistications d'une méthode visant à dévoiler "l'être de la conscience". Toutefois, les pages consacrées à la description des comportements de mauvaise foi sont d'un abord plus facile. Sartre excelle dans le récit de situations qui révèlent les ruses de la conscience qui se ment à elle-même. Ainsi, le garçon de café qui se prend pour un garçon de café, sans chercher à réaliser son être autrement, parvient à fuir liberté et angoisse. De même, la femme qui abandonne son bras comme une chose morte entre les mains de l'homme qui la désire, tout en lui tenant des propos éthérés, cherche à s'affranchir des affres de la décision.
L'existentialisme est un humanisme
Jean-Paul Sartre
« L'existentialisme n'est pas autre chose qu'un effort pour tirer toutes les conséquences d'une position athée cohérente. Elle ne cherche pas du tout à plonger l'homme dans le désespoir. Mais si l'on appelle, comme les chrétiens, désespoir toute attitude d'incroyance, elle part du désespoir originel. L'existentialisme n'est pas tellement un athéisme au sens où il s'épuiserait à démontrer que Dieu n'existe pas. Il déclare plutôt : même si Dieu existait, ça ne changerait rien ; voilà notre point de vue. Non pas que nous croyions que Dieu existe, mais nous pensons que le problème n'est pas celui de son existence ; il faut que l'homme se retrouve lui-même et se persuade que rien ne peut le sauver de lui-même, fût-ce une preuve valable de l'existence de Dieu. En ce sens, l'existentialisme est un optimisme, une doctrine d'action. »
L'immaginario
Jean-Paul Sartre
L'immaginario di Jean-Paul Sartre - pubblicato nel 1940 - è ancora oggi un testo di grande originalità. Concepito assieme a L'immaginazione, l'altro saggio dedicato all'immagine, costituisce una pietra miliare nel panorama della fenomenologia del XX secolo e, più estesamente, delle teorie contemporanee dell'immaginario. Sulla scorta delle indagini degli anni universitari e degli approfondimenti della fenomenologia compiuti durante un soggiorno a Berlino, Sartre riprende autonomamente i cardini del pensiero di Husserl e imbocca un cammino che lo porta a una nuova definizione della coscienza nei suoi rapporti con l'immagine. La tesi radicale di questo saggio denso e meditato è quella dell'incommensurabilità di percezione e immaginazione, nodo teorico che permette a Sartre di ridefinire la natura della coscienza immaginativa e dell'immagine quale oggetto irreale. Andando oltre Husserl, Sartre conferisce così alla coscienza immaginativa uno statuto nuovo e più originario rispetto alla percezione. Questo gesto filosofico è gravido di conseguenze: da una parte viene aperta la strada a una considerazione della vita immaginaria fin nelle sue molteplici manifestazioni (dal sogno all'opera d'arte), attraverso il territorio oscuro dei rapporti tra l'immagine e il pensiero; dall'altra vengono poste le basi di una teoria della libertà dell'immaginario e di un'estetica sui generis che si realizzeranno compiutamente negli scritti filosofici e letterari caratterizzanti, nel secondo dopoguerra, la grande stagione dell'esistenzialismo francese.
Modern Times: Selected Non Fiction
Jean-Paul Sartre
MODERN TIMES brings together an extraordinary collection of Sartrean gems, many of which have never been translated into English before. From writings on food and sex to a mini portrait of his great friend and rival, Albert Camus, the volume contains an amazing sweep of thematically organised writing. Amidst the grander set pieces on communism and the art of biography, are shorter and more revealing pieces on maternal love and masturbation.
Nausea
Jean-Paul Sartre
Nausea is the story of Antoine Roquentin, a French writer who is horrified at his own existence. In impressionistic, diary form he ruthlessly catalogues his every feeling and sensation about the world and people around him.
His thoughts culminate in a pervasive, overpowering feeling of nausea which "spread at the bottom of the viscous puddle, at the bottom of our time, the time of purple suspenders and broken chair seats; it is made of wide, soft instants, spreading at the edge, like an oil stain."
Roquentin's efforts to try and come to terms with his life, his philosophical and psychological struggles, give Sartre the opportunity to dramatize the tenets of his Existentialist creed.
The introduction for this edition of Nausea by Hayden Carruth gives background on Sartre's life and major works, a summary of the principal themes of Existentialist philosophy, and a critical analysis of the novel itself.
Nausea, The Wall and Other Stories
Jean-Paul Sartre
Book by Sartre, Jean-Paul
No Exit
Jean-Paul Sartre
Jean-Paul Sartre, the great French existentialist, displays his mastery of drama in NO EXIT, an unforgettable portrayal of hell.
The play is a depiction of the afterlife in which three deceased characters are punished by being locked into a room together for all eternity. It is the source of Sartre's especially famous and often misinterpreted quotation "L'enfer, c'est les autres" or "Hell is other people", a reference to Sartre's ideas about the Look and the perpetual ontological struggle of being caused to see oneself as an object in the world of another consciousness.

O Muro ("O Muro" Coletânea de Contos de Sartre Livro 1)
Jean-Paul Sartre
"O Muro" é o primeiro conto da série homônima de Sartre. Nele o autor apresenta a história de três presos políticos na noite de suas execuções que sobre o olhar de um médico imparcial - que aparentemente esta lá para consolá-los - tem seu arraso mental descrito em detalhes angustiantes. E à medida que a manhã inexoravelmente se aproxima, os prisioneiros atravessam O Muro psicológico entre a vida e a morte, muito antes do primeiro tiro ser disparado. Este brilhante retrato da angustia vivida é a perfeita introdução a uma coleção de histórias em que a neurose do mundo moderno é espelhada na vida das pessoas que o habitam.
O seqüestrado de Veneza

Sartre: Le Mur (French and English Edition)
Jean-Paul Sartre
In this study of the short story collection, "Le Mur", Sartre is situated in the context of the 1930s and each story is analyzed in turn for its ideas and authorial standpoint. The focus is on the governing motifs of walls and rooms, the obsessive themes of bad faith and the interpersonal power struggles centring on the mutual hostility of gaze. Sartre's investigations embrace psychological aberrations, love and friendship and their impossibilities, sex, death, politics (left-wing and reactionary) and the mirages of humanism. Sartre's debts to and divergent recycling of philosphical or psychoanalytical theories (Freud), of cultural phenomena (surrealism) and his own early version of existentialism are evaluated in the relevant stories. Particular attention is drawn to the blackly comic element in all the stories, the recurrence of play-acting to the detriment of positive activity, and the duality of Sartre's stance (empathy/mockery).
The Age of Reason (Roads to Freedom, #1)
Jean-Paul Sartre
The Age of Reason is set in 1938 and tells of Mathieu, a French professor of philosophy who is obsessed with the idea of freedom. As the shadows of the Second World War draw closer -- even as his personal life is complicated by his mistress's pregnancy -- his search for a way to remain free becomes more and more intense.

The Imaginary
Jean-Paul Sartre
First published in 1940, Sartre's The Imaginary is a cornerstone of his philosophy. Sartre had become acquainted with the philosophy of Edmund Husserl in Berlin and was fascinated by his idea of the "intentionality of consciousness" as a key to the puzzle of existence. Against this background, The Imaginary crystallized Sartre's worldview and artistic vision. Here he presented the first extended examination of the concepts of nothingness and freedom, both of which are derived from the ability of consciousness to imagine objects both as they are and as they are not. These ideas would drive Sartre's existentialism and his entire theory of human freedom, laying the foundation for his masterwork Being and Nothingness three years later. This new translation by Jonathan Webber rectifies flaws in the terminology of the first translation and recaptures the essence of Sartre's phenomenology. Webber's perceptive new introduction helps to decipher this challenging, seminal work, placing it in the context of the author's work and the history of philosophy.
The Psychology of Imagination
Jean-Paul Sartre
In this book, France's leading existentialist writer examines the function of consciousness in creating a world of unrealities. Sartre reveals a new way of conceiving of consciousness, the nature of psychic life, and the mind's complex relationship with the external world.
The Reprieve
Jean-Paul Sartre
An extraordinary picture of life in France during the critical eight days before the signing of the fateful Munich Pact and the subsequent takeover of Czechoslovakia in September 1938. Translated from the French by Eric Sutton.
The Respectful Prostitute
Jean-Paul Sartre
The Respectful Prostitute explores the moral choices experienced by a white prostitute after she witnesses a crime committed against a black man.
The Transcendence of the Ego: An Existentialist Theory of Consciousness
Jean-Paul Sartre
First published in France in 1937, this important essay marked a turning point in Sartre's philosophical development. Before writing it, he had been closely allied with phenomenologists such as Husserl and Heidegger. Here, however, Sartre attacked Husserl's notion of a transcendental ego. The break with Husserl, in turn, facilitated Sartre's transition from phenomenology to the existentialist doctrines of his masterwork, Being and Nothingness, which was completed a few years later while the author was a prisoner of war.
This student-friendly edition of The Transcendence of the Ego also includes an introduction and notes/annotations by the translators.
The Wall
Jean-Paul Sartre
'The Wall', the lead story in this collection, introduces three political prisoners on the night prior to their execution. Through the gaze of an impartial doctor--seemingly there for the men's solace--their mental descent is charted in exquisite, often harrowing detail. And as the morning draws inexorably closer, the men cross the psychological wall between life and death, long before the first shot rings out.
This brilliant snapshot of life in anguish is the perfect introduction to a collection of stories where the neurosis of the modern world is mirrored in the lives of the people that inhabit it.
The Wall and Other Stories
Jean-Paul Sartre
In the five stories included in this collection - "The Wall," "The Room," "Erostratus," "Intimacy" and "The Childhood of a Leader" - the French master of Existentialism displays his powers of narrative and psychological insight at their most effective. Sartre's characters and situations mirror the conflicts, complexities, neuroses and sensuality of the twentieth century. His intellectual underworld includes a modern Erostratus who is compelled to murder, a psychotic who communicates his hallucinations to his formerly-sane spouse, an unfaithful wife still bound to her impotent husband, a boy's metamorphosis into an anti-semetic fascist, and the astonishing fate of a political prisoner.
The close-ups of these people living in a contemporary world are vividly real; their stories are gripping and almost unbearably suspenseful. Polyphonic themes of decadence, sexual perversion, insanity and political and social amorality are skillfully woven throughout the entire collection of stories.
Troubled Sleep
Jean-Paul Sartre
Powerfully depicts the fall of France in 1940, and the anguished response of the French people to the German occupation. Translated from the French by Gerard Hopkins.
Truth and Existence
Jean-Paul Sartre
Truth and Existence , written in response to Martin Heidegger's Essence of Truth , is a product of the years when Sartre was reaching full stature as a philosopher, novelist, playwright, essayist, and political activist. This concise and engaging text not only presents Sartre's ontology of truth but also addresses the key moral questions of freedom, action, and bad faith.
Truth and Existence is introduced by an extended biographical, historical, and analytical essay by Ronald Aronson.
" Truth and Existence is another important element in the recently published links between Sartre's existentialist ontology and his later ethical, political, and literary concerns. . . . The excellent introduction by Aronson will help readers not experienced in reading Sartre."— Choice
"Accompanied by an excellent introduction, this dense, lucidly translated treatise reveals Sartre as a characteristically 20th-century figure."— Publishers Weekly

Varoluşçuluk
Jean-Paul Sartre
Varoluşçuluk nedir?
Bugüne değin çeşitli yanıtlar verilmiş bir sorudur bu. Sözgelişi, Weil’e göre varoluşçuluk bir bunalım, Mounier’ye göre umutsuzluk, Hamelin’e göre bunaltı, Banfi’ye göre kötümserlik, Wahl’e göre başkaldırış, Marcel’e göre özgürlük, Lukács’a göre idealizm, Benda’ya göre usdışılık, Foulqué’ye göre saçmalık felsefesidir.
Bir dönem, slogancı gençliğin peygamberi ve ‘varoluşçu papası’ sayılan J.-P. Sartre’a göreyse, varoluş, insanda, ama yalnız insanda, özden önce gelir. Bu demektir ki insan önce vardır; sonra şöyle ya da böyle olur. Çünkü o, özünü kendisi yaratır. Nasıl mı? Şöyle: “Dünyaya atılarak, orada acı çekerek, savaşarak yavaş yavaş kendini belirler. Bu belirleme yolu hiç kapanmaz...”
Asım Bezirci’nin çevirip yayıma hazırladığı bu eser her kuramda, her inanda farklı karşılıklar bulan bir felsefenin temel metnini (Varoluşçuluk Bir İnsancılıktır / Sartre) ve bunun yanı sıra Gaéton Picon ve Laffont Bompiani’ nin varoluşçuluğa ilişkin incelemeleriyle P. Naville’in Sartre’la yaptığı konuşmayı içeriyor.

Мухи
Jean-Paul Sartre
Большинство критиков считают философскую драму Сартра «Мухи» самой удачной. Основная тема пьесы – свобода, сопротивление духовному порабощению и искупление.
Пьеса была поставлена в 1943 году, во времена нацистской оккупации Франции, но Сартр сумел провести ее через фашистских цензоров. Основанная на греческой мифологии, она имела грандиозный политический подтекст, обличая бедственное положение порабощенных людей.
Когда Орест прибывает в родной Аргос, его наводнили рои мух – наказание богов жителям, не предотвратившим убийство царя Агамемнона, отца Ореста. Мать Ореста, Клитемнестра, делит трон и ложе с убийцей отца, Эгисфом. Сестра Ореста, Электра, живет в родном доме на положении служанки.
