About the book
This new translation of Critical Essays (Situations I) by Turner contains Sartre's essays on literature and philosophy from the years between 1938 and 1946, a highly formative period of the French philosopher and existentialist?s life. Collected here are Sartre?s experiments in reimagining the idea and structure of the essay. Among the distinguished writers he analyzes are Francis Ponge, Georges Bataille, Vladimir Nabokov, Maurice Blanchot, and Albert Camus, whose novel The Stranger Sartre endeavours to explain. The volume also contains a famous attack on the Catholic novelist Fran?ois Mauriac, studies of the great American literary iconoclasts Faulkner and Dos Passos, and brief but insightful essays on aspects of the philosophical writings of Husserl and Descartes. --
