Playwright, novelist, political theorist, literary critic and
philosopher, Jean-Paul Sartre (1905-80) remains an iconic figure.
This book examines his philosophical ideas and methods. It is an
introductory guide for the student who wishes to understand
Sartre's philosophical argumentation. It reconstructs in plain
language key instances of Sartre's philosophical reasoning at work
and shows how certain questions arise for Sartre and what
philosophical tools he uses to address those questions. Each
chapter considers a range of issues in the Sartrean corpus
including his conception of phenomenology, the question of
self-identity, the Sartrean view of conscious beings, his
understanding of the self, his theory of value, human action as
both the originator and the outcome of social processes,
dialectical reason, and his conception of artistic activity.
Hatzimoysis uncovers the philosophical argumentation, identifies
Sartre's most important philosophical ideas and addresses the
arguments in which those ideas are employed. Readers are able to
get a real understanding of Sartre's approach to the activity of
philosophising and how his method favours certain types of
philosophical analysis.
