简介

Sartre began the book after his release from a German prisoner-of-war camp in 1941, drawing on his reading of Husserl and of Heidegger, whom he had studied in captivity; it appeared in Paris in June 1943 with the subtitle “An Essay on Phenomenological Ontology”. Its more than 700 pages are known for concrete scenes: a café waiter who plays at being a waiter as an example of bad faith, the absent friend Pierre whom one seeks in a café, and the person caught looking through a keyhole, who feels shame under the gaze of another. It ends with an “existential psychoanalysis” and a promised ethics that Sartre never published in his lifetime.
