Description

Description

Truth and Existence is Jean-Paul Sartre's analysis of knowing and truth, offering insights into his characteristic key moral questions of freedom, action, and bad faith.

This work presents Sartre's ontology of truth in terms of the intuitive and personal dimensions of truth, as well as the argument that ignoring is an intentional act starting from the primary ontological condition of ignorance.

Written in response to Martin Heidegger's The Essence of Truth, Truth and Existence explores why one might choose to ignore the truth, and how this relates to Sartre's concept of bad faith. A concise and engaging text that sheds light on Sartre's philosophy and its relevance to ethics.
