"This was assigned for the Philosophy of Existentialism taught by Howard Burkle. Although he became head of the new Religion Department, this course was taught under the Department of Philosophy. The readings included Kierkegaard, Nietzsche, Sartre, Camus, Marcel and Kaufmann. The fact that I remember them all bespeaks the positive impression the class made and I did quite enjoy all the readings, even, surprisingly, Kierkegaard, except for one.
The one I didn't like was the Sartre collection, titled in this edition Essays in Existentialism, but originally published as The Philsophy of Existentialism. Looking at it, I find a lot of tiny marginalia, particularly in the sections about psychology. I simply couldn't reoncile Sartre's views with those I'd been picking up reading what he terms "the classical psychologists" and the psychoanalysts, particularly as regards the heuristic of the unconscious. I remember sitting in my room on a cold night, feverishly penning questions and criticisms in the margins, wondering how he could be so dense--or I so ignorant, as not to get it.
Now, of course, I suspect it was over my head at the time like so many readings were."
"A thoroughly enjoyable collection of essays by Jean-Paul Sartre. . . . Really. I especially enjoyed reading Part I ("The Humanism of Existentialism" and "Freedom and Responsibility" were my favorite sub-sections) as well as Part III ("The Emotions: Outline of a Theory"), Part V ("What Is Writing?"), and Part VI ("Essays in Aesthetics"). This last part (VI) is an excellent reminder that Sartre is also a fiction writer whose language is indeed beautiful. . . . I just love those French existentialists!"
"Short essays on various topics in existentialism. I realize this is not likely helpful but it is a great text for getting in on the ground floor and learning of existentialism. Sometimes gets a little heavy and complex on the ideas and concepts but overall good for someone without previous philosophical study or for the PhD."
