Jean Paul Sartre (1905-1980) became the emblematic French thinker of his generation. His hugely influential writings - ranging across philosophy, novels, stories, plays, and political pamphlets - include Being and Nothingness, Critique of Dialectical Reason, Nausea, The Words, and No Exit and the Flies. Perry Anderson is the author of many works including Lineages of the Absolutist State, In the Tracks of Historical Materialism, A Zone of Engagement and The Origins of Postmodernity. He teaches history at UCLA and is an editor of New Left Review. Quintin Hoare is a prize-winning translator and editor of Gramsci and Sartre, among others. Ronald Fraser is author of the classic Blood of Spain.
'One would perhaps have to go back as far as Voltaire to find a comparable case of a writer whose influence extended well beyond literature, into the realm of philosophical, historical, and political thought.' New York Review of Books 'I want to always remain an appeal for living.' Sartre 'This volume has the merit of allowing the reader to become easily acquainted with some challenging aspects of Sartre's writings while gaining a clear insight into the broad spectrum of his thought and his legendary capacity for skilful remorseless self-analysis.' Journal of Contemporary European Studies
