Outline (in English)

The aim of this seminar is to reconsider Sartre's existential philosophy, compared to recent “new existentialism”. We read mainly Sartre’s monumental work, Being and Nothingness: An Essay on Phenomenological Ontology (1943), to examine some possibilities and problems of sartrian existentialism from the point of view of today’s philosophical discourses concerning the “existence”, human or not.

At the end of the course, students are expected to gain a basic understanding of the main issues in Sartre's "Being and Nothingness", as well as to be able to discuss the contentious points and problems of existentialism at some level.

Before each class meeting, students will be expected to have read the designated texte. Your required study time is at least one hour for each class meeting.

Evaluation is based on class presentation and participation (70%) and end-of-term reports (30%)
