Sartre, Jean-Paul : Life - Situations

Essays Written and Spoken
Jean-Paul Sartre, whose heyday as the “high priest of existentialism” is long past, has never settled comfortably into the role of an éminence grise. Each decade has seen him at once thoroughly engaged in the affairs of the moment and developing as a creative philosopher. He abandoned his career as a writer of “literature” with his last play, The Condemned of Altona (1959) and his autobiographical The Words (1964). Since then, he has expressed himself in philosophy (Critique of Dialectical Reason), literary criticism (the monumental studies of Genet and Flaubert), and in the ten volumes of essays, primarily on literary and political topics, which he calls Situations.
