A Critique of Jean Paul Sartre's Ontology, (Hardcover)

""A Critique of Jean Paul Sartre's Ontology"" is a book written by Maurice Natanson, which provides an in-depth analysis and critique of the ontology of Jean Paul Sartre. Sartre's ontology is based on the idea that human beings are fundamentally free and that this freedom is the foundation of human existence. Natanson critically examines this idea and argues that Sartre's ontology is flawed in several ways.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which deals with a different aspect of Sartre's ontology. Natanson begins by examining Sartre's concept of freedom and argues that it is too simplistic and does not take into account the complexities of human existence. He then moves on to analyze Sartre's ideas about consciousness and the self, arguing that they are also flawed and fail to capture the full complexity of human experience.Throughout the book, Natanson provides detailed and nuanced critiques of Sartre's ontology, drawing on a wide range of philosophical and literary sources. He also offers his own alternative vision of ontology, which he believes is more accurate and more in line with the complexities of human existence.Overall, ""A Critique of Jean Paul Sartre's Ontology"" is a challenging and thought-provoking book that will be of interest to anyone interested in the philosophy of existentialism or the nature of human existence.University Of Nebraska Studies, March, 1951.
