Jean Paul Sartre Ordine dei libri (cronologico)

Die Anmerkung beleuchtet, dass der relative Wohlstand der arbeitenden Bevölkerung in den westlichen Industrienationen das Ergebnis von Klassenkämpfen ist. Nach Marx führt die innere Notwendigkeit, die aus den Widersprüchen des Kapitalismus entsteht, zur Revolution. Diese „Krankheit“ wird als Antrieb für die revolutionäre Klasse betrachtet.

Through an in-depth analysis of Gustave Flaubert's life and work, particularly his creation of Madame Bovary, this classic study explores the formation of the modern self. Jean-Paul Sartre dedicated a decade to this comprehensive examination, which reflects his philosophical insights. Now available in an abridged edition, this work, compiled by Joseph S. Catalano, maintains the essence of Sartre's original volumes while revealing the enduring impact of nihilism in contemporary thought.

Critical Essays (Situations I) contains essays on literature and philosophy from a highly formative period of French philosopher and leading existentialist Jean-Paul Sartre’s life, the years between 1938 and 1946. This period is particularly interesting because it is before Sartre published the magnum opus that would solidify his name as a philosopher, Being and Nothingness. Instead, during this time Sartre was emerging as one of France’s most promising young novelists and playwrights - he had already published Nausea, The Age of Reason, The Flies, and No Exit. Not content, however, he was meanwhile consciously attempting to revive the form of the essay via detailed examinations of writers who were to become central to European cultural life in the immediate aftermath of World War II. -- Provided by publisher

Jean-Paul Sartre, at the height of his powers, debates with Italy’s leading intellectuals In 1961, the prolific French intellectual Jean-Paul Sartre was invited to give a talk at the Gramsci Institute in Rome. In attendance were some of Italy’s leading Marxist thinkers, such as Enzo Paci, Cesare Luporini, and Galvano Della Volpe, whose contributions to the long and remarkable discussion that followed are collected in this volume, along with the lecture itself. Sartre posed the question “What is subjectivity?”—a question of renewed importance today to contemporary debates concerning “the subject” in critical theory. This work includes a preface by Michel Kail and Raoul Kirchmayr and an afterword by Fredric Jameson, who makes a rousing case for the continued importance of Sartre’s philosophy.

Dopo aver viaggiato a lungo, Antoine Roquentin si stabilisce a Bouville, in uno squallido albergo vicino alla stazione, per scrivere una tesi di dottorato in storia. La sera, si siede al tavolo di un bistrot ad ascoltare un disco, sempre lo stesso: "Some of These Days". La sua vita ormai non ha più senso: il passato è abitato da Anny, mentre il presente è sempre più sommerso da una sensazione dolce e orribile, insinuante, che ha nome Nausea. Un romanzo trasgressivo e ricchissimo, sempre attuale, che ci restituisce il disagio del mondo in agonia alla vigilia della Seconda guerra mondiale. Il libro più libero di Sartre, il più disinteressato e il più appassionato insieme.

«Le Christ s'est arrêté à Éboli», disent les paysans de Gabliano, petit village de Lucanie, tellement ils se sentent abandonnés, misérables. L'auteur, antifasciste, a vécu là, en résidence surveillée, de 1935 à 1936. L'histoire de son séjour forcé parmi ces gens frustes et douloureux a été un des grands événements de la littérature italienne.

The book presents a previously lost script by Sartre, centered on the life and theories of Freud.
