EXISTENTIALISM and Human Emotions

By JEAN-PAUL SARTRE

Since the liberation of France, when reports on life during the occupation began to appear in this country, Jean-Paul Sartre and his work have been the subject of curiosity and even of a formless kind of debate.

People have obscurely sensed that Sartre is occupied with a philosophy that is immediately involved in the peculiar confusions that beset this generation in all aspects of its civilization, the private as well as the public. The chief effort of this work is to face the implications for personal action of a universe without purpose. That man is personally responsible for what he is and what he does; that there are no values external to man and no given human nature which he is obliged to fulfill; that man chooses his values and makes himself, and may therefore choose to be a different person—this is the heart of Jean-Paul Sartre's philosophy.”
