书籍简介
Paris, 1933…
Three friends were sitting in the Gaslight bar on the Boulevard Montparnasse, drinking apricot cocktails. One of them, a young philosopher named Raymond Aron, was extolling the virtues of a new philosophy he had discovered in Germany, phenomenology, to his fellow philosophers Jean-Paul Sartre and Simone de Beauvoir. "Look," he said, "if you were a phenomenologist, you could talk about this cocktail and make a philosophy out of it!"
Thus began the most influential and profound philosophical movement of the 20th century. Inspired by this, Sartre combined phenomenology with his French humanistic sensibility to create a completely new philosophical thought: modern existentialism.
In this book, the famous British writer Sarah Bakewell combines history, biography and philosophy, and passionately tells an existentialist story full of struggle, love, resistance and betrayal from an epic perspective. It delves into what existentialists who were once troubled by the questions of absolute freedom, global responsibility and human authenticity can tell us when each of us once again faces them in today's turbulent and technology-driven world.
