It was to correct common misconceptions about his thought that Sartre accepted an invitation to speak on October 29, 1945, at the Club Maintenant in Paris. The unstated objective of his lecture ("Existentialism Is a Humanism") was to expound his philosophy as a form of "existentialism," a term much bandied about at the time. Sartre asserted that existentialism was essentially a doctrine for philosophers, though, ironically, he was about to make it accessible to a general audience. The published text of his lecture quickly became one of the bibles of existentialism and made Sartre an international celebrity.The idea of freedom occupies the center of Sartre's doctrine. Man, born into an empty, godless universe, is nothing to begin with. He creates his essence--his self, his being--through the choices he freely makes ("existence precedes essence"). Were it not for the contingency of his death, he would never end. Choosing to be this or that is to affirm the value of what we choose. In choosing, therefore, we commit not only ourselves but all of mankind.This edition of "Existentialism Is a Humanism" is a translation of the 1996 French edition, which includes Arlette Elkaim-Sartre's introduction and a QandA with Sartre about his lecture. Paired with "Existentialism Is a Humanism" is another seminal Sartre text, his commentary on Camus's "The Stranger." In her foreword, intended for an American audience, acclaimed Sartre biographer Annie Cohen-Solal offers an assessment of both works.

读后感

【这篇短文里萨特的基本主张是存在先于本质，人以自己的行动选择和发明自己。是上帝不存在的逻辑推衍。人的本质是自由，但恰恰因此他必须在选择中对自己和人类负责。之所以是人道主义是因为人或存在的超越性和主观性。很短的小文，论述不甚清楚，其对海德格尔的无神论解释很可...  

1945年在巴黎一个酒吧里，只有5英尺高且相貌平平的萨特，被淹没在聚集在他周围的人群里，但是他发出的声音却是振聋发聩，席卷当时的法国，这一演讲最终整理成这本书。当时的人们对于存在主义是一种讽刺的态度，“Sir, what a honor, existentialism”。 当时的主要是年轻人信奉...

现在为止看过最平易近人的哲学原著。有种和蔼可亲的萨特老爷爷给你慢慢讲述人生道理（大雾！）的感觉。

【大概是存在主义最好懂的一本书】囧。难怪我说存在与虚无要被嘲笑了。
