Pages : 372
Book Description
What is Literature? challenges anyone who writes as if literature could be extricated from history or society. But Sartre does more than indict. He offers a definitive statement about the phenomenology of reading, and he goes on to provide a dashing example of how to write a history of literature that takes ideology and institutions into account.

Sartre: Literature and Theory
Author: Rhiannon Goldthorpe
Publisher: CUP Archive
ISBN: 9780521338783
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 260
Book Description
In this major study Rhiannon Goldthorpe takes up the challenge of Sartre's diversity in an original and provocative way. Her detailed and comprehensive exploration of the relationship between the theoretical and literary works pays due attention to their characteristic complexity. The discussion of La Nausée, Les Mouches, Huis clos, Les Mains sales and Les Séquestrés e'Altona, for example, does not present these literary texts as mere 'illustrations' of Sartre's theories of consciousness, imagination and emotion, but as subtle philosophical and linguistic investigations in their own right. In addition, by reference to recently published fragments from Sartre's earlier work, Goldthorpe calls into question existing views of Sartre's intellectual development and provides a new history of the crucial Sartrean concept of 'commitment'.

Literature and Existentialism
Author: Jean-Paul Sartre
Publisher: Philosophical Library/Open Road
ISBN: 9781480444577
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
In a probing philosophical exploration of the act of literary creation, Sartre asks: "What is writing?," "Why write?," and "For whom does one write?" After discussing existentialism as it pertains to art, human emotions, and psychology, French existentialist philosopher Jean-Paul Sartre turns the question of existentialism to the subject of literature by stating that he wishes to "examine the art of writing without prejudice." Sartre eschews the idea of artists and writers comparing their works of art to one another; instead, he argues, "they exist by themselves." Tying into his thoughts on literature, Sartre additionally delves into Marxist politics, the intellectual labor of the writer, the individual reader, and the reading public.

Jean-Paul Sartre's Theory of Literature
Literary Essays
Author: Jean-Paul Sartre
Publisher: Citadel Press
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 108
Book Description
"Jean-Paul Sartre's influence on modern literature is based, not only on his remarkable philosophy and his stature as a playwright and novelist, but on his weight as a literary critic. First in France, and later abroad, his original and trenchant analysis of contemporary letters have sown the seeds from which a whole school of criticism sprung up. In these sparkling essays he brings his unique viewpoint to bear upon a significant group of twentieth-century writers - men who are not only of first importance to the Existentialists, but who may be among the creative giants of our time: William Faulkner, Francois Mauriac, John Dos Passos, Jean Giraudoux, Albert Camus and Franz Kafka. These fascinating studies extend still further the range of Sartre's ideas, as well as clarifying the aesthetic theories laid down in Being and Nothingness. They make provocative reading for anyone whose ears are not closed to the more controversial issues of the day"--Back cover.
