In Nausea, the 1938 novel that made Sartre famous, the protagonist
is a historian who abandons the biography he is writing because he
comes to believe that all histories are fictional, escapist, and
useless. He sought the one and only truth of history; a truth that
would revolutionize the world. By the time Sartre published his
most mature works, he claimed to have written a biography that was
perfectly true. This book examines how and why Sartre's position on
the possibility and worth of historical knowledge changed so
dramatically. In addition, it illuminates Sartre's unique
contribution to the grand debate between Marxist and anarchist
revolutionaries-a debate that continues today.
