Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. xii, 491 p. 22 cm. ; LCCN 65011282 ; OCLC 3815551 ; LC B2430.S32 E53 Dewey 194 ; black cloth without dustjacket ; "Most of the excepts are from Being and Nothingness, Sartre's masterwork, in which he examines consciousness from a phenomenological point of view, that is, by describing what appears to first-hand experience without preconceptions. Nothingness is an interesting concept for Sartre. It is neither the mathematical zero, nor the vacuum of outer space, rather it is the space for things in consciousness. If Being is that which we are conscious of as real, physical objects in the world, then the Nothingness is the space created in consciousness to take a detached view of those objects and to consider what they are not. What we want things to be, what we need things to be, what we can imagine things to be, are all what things are not, and therefore Nothingness. The past and the future are Nothingness, for they are not-yet and no-longer. Emotions are Nothingness, because they are not the Being about which we have the emotions. And most important, our projects for the future, our freedom, are Nothingness, because they are beyond Being, beyond what actually is."--John Stout, Goodreads ; name on front endpaper ; this is an authoritative introduction to the life of one of the greatest intellectual figures of the twentieth century. Prompted by the belief that none of the parts of Sartre's work is fully intelligible apart from the whole , this ambitious volume attempts to provide a synoptic view of Sartre's oeuvre in its entirety. The editor, Robert Denoon Cumming, has organised the work around certain concepts which are central to Sartrian thought, notably Consciousness in its relation to Being, to 'the Other', to Art, Literature, History and Society. The reader can see for himself how Sartre's aesthetic and highly individual existentialism of La Nausée is systematically transformed into the neo-Marxist sociological theory of his Critique de la Raison dialectique . By a skilful process of editing, Professor Cumming has provided an authoritative introduction to the life of one of the greatest intellectual figures of modern times --PhilPapers ; Contents: Consciousness -- Consciousness and being -- Consciousness and the other -- Consciousness and action -- Consciousness and literature -- Consciousness and society. ; VG.
