Biography of Jean-Paul Sartre (1905-1980)
Jean-Paul Sartre Born in Paris in 1905 to Jean-Baptiste Sartre, an officer in the French navy, and Anne-Marie Schweitzer, Jean-Paul lost his father at the tender age of fifteen months. He attended the Ecole Normale Superieure in Paris, one of the country's most prestigious schools, and graduated in 1929. While at ENS, Sartre met the woman who was to become his lifelong companion - Simone de Beauvoir. He and Simone had a mutual arrangement and a partnership that remained in place for years. However, they never married, for Sartre did not believe in such a "bourgeois" institution. Also at ENS, Sartre met Emmanuel Mounier, Raymond Aron, Claud Levi-Strauss, Jean Hippolyte, and Simone Weil. He became deeply immersed in philosophy, and once out of school moved to Berlin to study the works of Martin Heidegger and Edmund Husserl. He began frequenting the Left Bank cafes of 1930s Paris, which were quickly becoming hives of intellectual activity, and fought briefly in World War II. Once back in Paris after being released from a German prison, Sartre joined the Resistance and wrote for the magazines Les Lettres Francaises and Combat . After the war, he founded

Biography of French playwright jeanpaul sartre, plus links to all of his works currently in print.
http://www.imagi-nation.com/moonstruck/clsc39.html
Jean-Paul Sartre Nausea , in 1938, and a year later, a volume of short stories entitled The Wall . His literary career, however, was put on hold in 1939 when the French Army was mobilized. He was taken prisoner in June of 1940 and imprisoned in Staleg XIID near Trier. After nine months in the German prison camp, Sartre managed to escape and made his way to Paris where he joined the French Underground. Somehow, in spite of the German occupation, Sartre managed not only to write another book, but to get two plays produced in the occupied capital. In 1943, Charles Dullin produced Sartre's first play, Les Mouches or The Flies The Flies , Sartre uses the classic Oresteian myth as a vehicle for his existential philosophy. The play revolves around the return of Orestes to his homeland, Argos, several years after the murder of his father at the hands of his mother Clytemnestra and her lover Aegistheus. Rejecting the sense of guilt which the murderers have forced upon the people of Argos and established as the state religion, Orestes avenges his fathers death and liberates his homeland. Sartre's political message was clear: do not hesitate to kill not only Germans but also French collaborators if this is the only means of liberating France. No Exit which tells the story of a demoniacal lesbian, a spoiled society woman, and a cowardly journalist who find themselves trapped in Hell. They are held captive in a single chamber in which they must eternally torment one another with the awareness of their delusions and their failures as human beings. In the end, they come to the realization that "There's no need for red-hot pokers. Hell isother people!"

Introduction
Print this section Jean-Paul Sartre (1905-1980), French philosopher, dramatist, novelist, and political journalist, who was a leading exponent of existentialism. Sartre was born in Paris, June 21, 1905, and educated at the ‰cole Normale Sup©rieure in Paris, the University of Fribourg in Switzerland, and the French Institute in Berlin. He taught philosophy at various lyc©es from 1929 until the outbreak of World War II, when he was called into military service. In 1940-41 he was imprisoned by the Germans; after his release, he taught in Neuilly, France, and later in Paris, and was active in the French Resistance. The German authorities, unaware of his underground activities, permitted the production of his antiauthoritarian play The Flies

University of Louisville From Sartre to Fanon: The Unbroken Legacy It is nearly fifty years since Jean-Paul Sartre wrote "Orphee noir" as preface to Senhgor's Anthologie de la nouvelle poesie negre et malgache de langue francaise . Written in the immediate post-War years, it marks a moment in Sartre's transition from the existentialist model of subject/object opposition in Being and Nothingness to the picture of a more socially responsible subject in the Critique of Dialectical Reason . In the post-War period, Sartre turned his attention more toward social processes and social change, and hence to the notion and theory of social responsibility. From the portrait of the anti-Semite, Sartre enlarged his analysis to cover the image of the racist as such. As Flynn (1984:52) notes, "Sartre's descriptions move[d] beyond individual psychology to the social field and to what in an important insight he calls the 'bases and structures' of choice." In the analysis of the Anti-Semite and Jew , the oppositional relations of race then take on the existentialist dynamics already outlined in Being and Nothingness . What is remarkable in these texts is that Sartre sees racism as the social level of human psychology, born of fear of the human condition, a form of bad faith. If the Jew did not exist for the anti-Semite, he would invent him, for his fellow racist finds his own escape in the hatred for the Negro. In some kind of tension, Sartre appears to acknowledge that our existence is ascribed both by what we are and by what others think we are. What we are is our situation, our facticity, that which we cannot alter. As Sartre defines authenticity in

Boje, Ph.D. (September 3, 2001) - MAIN Site Fathers and Mother of Management Also see What is Situation? - Sartre Applied to Situation Leadership Being and Nothingness Sartre - Being and Nothingness -VOCABULARY Affirmation Being-For-Itself - Being has several dimensions. Being-for-itself is defined "as being what it is not and not being what it is" (Sartre, 1956: lxv). It is our potentiality to be more than we are being. The For-Itself is perpetually designing itself not Photo 1: Dave's Electroglide Harley Being-In-Itself Ekstases - There are three dimensions, or ekstases to nihilation (Sartre, 1956: 137):
  • To not-be what it is, To be what it is not, To be what it is not and to not-be what it is within the unity of a perpetual referring.
  • These three ekstatic dimensions rest on the definition of "ekstasis" as the distance from self. My Dave =:= David consciousness exists on these three dimensions. I may discover one first, but that does not mean the other two will not be discovered in acts of self-reflection or some accident of discovery or encounter. My distance from my "self" is nothing real, nothing In-Itself, it is as Sartre says, simply nothingness which "is made-to-be" as a separation (p. 137). Consider each of the three dimensions.
  • To not-be what it is - For-It-Self has to be its being, being what It-Is. A nothingness of facticity separates Dave from David. David is still just being Dave, trying to not-be what Dave is. David can neither get rid of Dave, nor merge with it. You do not escape the Past; it is always bearing witness to David non-being David. As Sartre says, when "I have finished drinking,"

    Jean-Paul Sartre lived from 1905-1980.
    Educated in his native Paris and at German universities, Jean-Paul Sartre taught philosophy during the 1930s at La Havre and Paris. ... Recognizing a connection between the principles of existentialism and the more practical concerns of social and political struggle, Sartre wrote not only philosophical treatises but also novels, stories, plays, and political pamphlets. Sartre's personal and professional life was greatly enriched by his long-term collaboration with Simone de Beauvoir . Although he declined the Nobel Prize for literature in 1964, Sartre was one of the most respected leaders of post-war French culture, and his funeral in Paris drew an enormous crowd. [ Read more...

    2001 NewFoundations
    Jean Paul Sartre's Educational Theory Analyst: Alan G. Peura RETURN
    edited 1/4/08 1. Theory of Value What knowledge and skills are worthwhile learning? What are the goals of education? Knowledge of the self as an autonomous individual as well as the skills to work through problems and conflict that come in confronting the world (facticity) and people (others). Education is to help the human being come to terms with his individual project, accept his freedom and facticity, and emerge as the unique human being that he is. [Burstow, p. 180]
    To learn authenticity and learn to live authentically (see Theory of Human Nature). To prepare the student to create meaning (for self and facticity) and be able to act on and direct meaning toward a goal. [Being and Nothingness]. To help students take responsibility for their own life, their own decisions, and help them understand their role and responsibility vis-a-vis others (as a "being-for-others"). 2. Theory of Knowledge: What is knowledge? How is it different from belief? What is a mistake? What is a lie? Knowledge starts with awareness of self as an individual separate from all others, as being for-itself separate from being in-itself.

    No Exit
    Although many nineteenth century philosophers developed the concepts of existentialism, it was the French writer Jean Paul Sartre who popularized it. His one act play, Huis Clos or No Exit, first produced in Paris in May, 19944, is the clearest example and metaphor for this philosophy. There are only four characters: the VALET, GARCIN, ESTELLE, and INEZ and the entire play takes place in a drawing room, Second Empire style, with a massive bronze ornament on the mantelpiece. However the piece contains essential germs of existentialist thought such as "Hell is other people." As you read the play, put yourself in that drawing room with two people you hate most in the world. GARCIN (enters, accompanied by the VALET, and glances around him): So here we are?
    VALET: Yes, Mr. Garcin.
    GARCIN: And this is what it looks like?
    VALET: Yes.
    GARCIN: Second Empire furniture, I observe... Well, well, I dare say one gets used to it in time.
    VALET: Some do, some don't.
    GARCIN: Are all the rooms like this one?
    VALET: How could they be? We cater for all sorts: Chinamen and Indians, for instance. What use would they have for a Second Empire chair?
