Paris, near the turn of 1933. Three young friends meet over apricot cocktails at the Bec-de-Gaz bar on the rue Montparnasse. They are Jean-Paul Sartre, Simone de Beauvoir and their friend Raymond Aron, who opens their eyes to a radical new way of thinking. Pointing to his drink, he says, "You can make philosophy out of this cocktail!"

From this moment of inspiration, Sartre will create his own extraordinary philosophy of real, experienced life – of love and desire, of freedom and being, of cafés and waiters, of friendships and revolutionary fervour. It is a philosophy that will enthral Paris and sweep through the world, leaving its mark on post-war liberation movements, from the student uprisings of 1968 to civil rights pioneers.

At the Existentialist Café tells the story of modern existentialism as one of passionate encounters between people, minds and ideas. From the ‘king and queen of existentialism’ – Sartre and de Beauvoir – to their wider circle of friends and adversaries including Albert Camus, Martin Heidegger, Maurice Merleau-Ponty and Iris Murdoch, this book is an enjoyable and original journey through a captivating intellectual movement. Weaving biography and thought, Sarah Bakewell takes us to the heart of a philosophy about life that also changed lives, and that tackled the biggest questions of all: what we are and how we are to live.

读后感

昨晚看了《存在主义咖啡馆》里提到的一部电影《不可思议的缩小人》，1957年拍摄的，黑白电影，讲的是一对情侣在海上度假，两人躺在游艇上悠哉游哉的日光浴，男的想喝啤酒，就让女的去游艇里拿啤酒，等等……女拳们要问了：为什么非得让女的去拿，自己想喝自己拿去。这的确是个...  

萨特说，人，被判自由。 我们的一生都笼罩在自由之下，无所遁形。即使生活受到外在条件（体制、出身、性别等种种因素）的限制，我们仍然拥有自由。因为在种种限制之下，仍存在无数个可能性供我们选择。 直到失去意识的前一秒，我们都能够运用与生俱来的自由，从浩如烟海的可能...  

《爱情、死亡、自由与革命…存在主义！？太可怕了！！》 1 “思想很有趣，但人更有趣” 1940年代的某一天，法国哲学家加布里埃尔·马塞尔在坐火车时，听到一位女士说： “先生，太可怕了，存在主义！我有个朋友的儿子就是存在主义者，他竟然和一个黑鬼女人住在厨房里！” 从某...  

用户评价

是我的真愛之書了。存在主義從誕生到散播到世界各地 其中的一個角色都寫得很生動 不僅有他們的哲學思想文學戲劇 還有每個人背後的故事。非常全面細緻的一幅全景圖了。♥️波伏娃沒有得到她應有的認可 不理解海德格爾的為人處事 但還是給他benefit of doubt. 沒有一個人的一生是喜劇或者悲劇 這本書終究不是一群人的集體傳記 雖說都和存在主義有關 但其實每個人都特別不一樣。

主要是八卦，但是读到萨特平均每天写20页的产出还是惊呆了！

很喜欢这版的封面设计。本以为会有“咖啡馆对谈”这样的脑洞部分，结果还是平实的叙述。作为通识读物看看20世纪著名哲学家们的八卦挺好。

为它的时代精神、人情味儿和个人启发。

迷妹所寫的八卦史……
