This review is from: How to Read Sartre (How to Read) (Paperback)
Bernasconi has done a huge service to everyone with an interest in Sartrean (or post-Sartrean) philosophy. He has, in around 100 very readable and interesting pages, taken from 10 excerpts of Sartre's massive bibliography and managed to give a more comprehensive and sensitive account of Sartre's philosophy. Significantly, he traces Sartre's development from his earliest writings to his last period, and in doing so he situates Sartre historically, politically and philosophically and is able to show the core points of emphasis in his work as he encountered new situations and ideas. Sartre's philosophical path makes much more sense in the reading Bernasconi gives, moreso than any treatment of Sartre I have ever read (and yes, I've looked at a lot of them).
Thank you Bernasconi for not giving us another repetition of the same popularly narrow readings! This book should be a must for college courses, libraries and anyone who has had an interest in Sartre and existentialism. |
