25.09.2009 - Interpretation of dali48

"The bad novel aims to please by flattering, whereas the good one is an exigence and an act of faith! - But above all, the unique point of view from which the author can present the world to those freedoms - whose concurrence he wishes to bring about is that of a world to be impregnated always with more freedom... (from What Is Literature, 1967)

In a godless universe life has no meaning or purpose beyond the goals that each man sets for himself! - In Being and Nothingness Sartre argued that an individual must detach oneself from things to give them meaning...

A writer is always a watchdog or a jester, but the primarily function of a writer is to act in such a way - that nobody can be ignorant of the world: a novelist cannot escape engagement in political and social issues. The reader brings to life the literary object - it is not true that one writes for oneself...

The O.A.S. (Organisation de l'Armée Secrète), engaged in terrorist activities against Algerian independence - exploded a bomb in 1961 in Sartre's apartment on rue Bonaparte - it happened also next year and Sartre moved on quai Louis-Blériot, opposite the Eiffel tower...

From 1973 the philosopher suffered from failing eyesight - and near the end of his life Sartre was blind... (J.P. Sartre, PAC)
