First published in French magazines in the 1960s, the essays and
interviews collected in this volume tackle two of Sartre's most
enduring concerns as a philosopher: politics and literature. With
regard to the former, they develop the notion of the intellectual
not only as an aloof theoretician, but also as a constructive agent
of change. His writings on literature explore the limitations of
language as an exact vehicle for meaning, the author's lack of
ownership of his own words and the avenues that certain types of
theatre such as Artaud's open for non-verbal communication. A
useful, concise introduction to Sartre's thinking, Politics and
Literature investigates concepts and highlights conflicts,
interrogations and debates that remain topical and relevant to this
day.
