Description

Four essays by the French master addressing other philosophers and their work. Iconic French novelist, playwright, and essayist Jean-Paul Sartre is widely recognized as one of the most important philosophers of the twentieth century, and his work has remained relevant and thought-provoking through the decades. The Seagull Sartre Library now presents some of his most incisive philosophical, cultural, and literary critical essays in twelve newly designed and affordable editions.   The four essays of varying length assembled in this volume bear witness to Sartres preoccupation with philosophers and their work. In these pages he examines Descartess concept of freedom; comments on a fundamental idea in Husserls phenomenology: intentionality; writes a mixed review of Denis de Rougemonts monumental Love in the Western World; and provides an extensive critical analysis of the work of Brice Parain, one of Frances leading philosophers of language.
