/lit/ - Literature

What do /lit/izens think of this man? His life and philosophies are intriguing, no?

any Sartre specialist here? What is the difference between his work "The Imaginary" and "The Imagination"? Since "The Imaginary" is published later, does it incorporate his previous ideas?

what do you think of Jean-Paul Sartre /lit/ ?

Hey, /lit/, could you let me know which book(s) I should read in order to educate myself in Sartre's philosophy?

I'm planning on perhaps doing an extensive study on him in a uni paper.

>In this moment, I am euphoric. Not because of any phony god's blessing. But because, I am enlightened by my intelligence.

Jean-Paul Sartre

where to start with Jean-Paul Sartre?

>>3233639

i would say "Man cannot live without suffering (...) etc" because man is always making/building himself throught existence

I'm gonna read a bit of Sartre.

Where should i start to get the most out of him and his thoughts?

I noticed there isn't anything about Sartre on the sticky.

I want to get into philosophy, and thought it would be a good start, as I found his wiki (sorry) interesting.

Anything you'd recommend?

>>What does Sartre mean by “situation”? How is this communicated by the play No Exit? What is the (Sartrean) significance of the door opening toward the end of No Exit?

A writer must refuse to allow himself to be transformed into an institution, even if it takes place in the most honourable form.

Why do philosophers, who articulate their thoughts in a clear, concise manner, have so little to say?

No exit.

Hell is other people.
