This book examines the concepts of subjectivity and selfhood
developed in the oeuvre of Jean-Paul Sartre. Although Sartre is a
prominent philosopher, the reception of his work is shrouded in
misguided ideas concerning his alleged subjectivism. This book
accurately positions Sartre in debates concerning the two themes
which form a guiding thread throughout his work and remain
immensely relevant in the philosophical landscape of today. Gusman
expertly tracks and uncovers the nuances of the evolving notions of
subjectivity and selfhood, paying particular attention to his claim
that the Self is a 'thing among things' and to his views on
narrative identity. Using as a framework the critical reception
from thinkers in Sartre's own tradition, the book also draws from
the recent popularity of his thought in analytic philosophy of
mind. Illuminating and impactful, this book provides an invaluable
resource to scholars looking for a contemporary and up-to-date
critical study of Sartre's work.
