La Mort dans l'âme is the third installment of the trilogy Les chemins de la liberté. The work originally appeared in 1949; this edition belongs to the Folio collection.
For readers of twentieth-century French fiction, philosophy and literary classics.
Jean-Paul Charles Aymard Sartre was a French philosopher, playwright, novelist, screenwriter, political activist, biographer, and literary critic, considered a leading figure in 20th-century French philosophy and Marxism. Sartre was one of the key figures in the philosophy of existentialism. His work has influenced sociology, critical theory, post-colonial theory, and literary studies. He was awarded the 1964 Nobel Prize in Literature despite attempting to refuse it, saying that he always declined official honors and that "a writer should not allow himself to be turned into an institution."
