Thank you! I read Being & Nothingness in 1992 and I will be starting an online class on this text July 13, 2023 at the Brooklyn Institute of Social Research.

Wow, I am so excited to see this video on Jean-Paul Sartre's "Being and Nothingness"! I've always been fascinated by Sartre's philosophy and this introduction seems like a perfect starting point for diving deeper into his ideas. The way the video promises to explore the key concepts and provide an in-depth analysis just adds to my anticipation. Can't wait to learn more! Keep up the great work!

I have never had the gusto to read this and this way of learning is perfect for me with what you are doing. Great work the journey through Being and Time was extremely illuminating that you gave. Thank you and a great ☎️ …🕛👌

I’m about to finish the magnum opus and these videos are a perfect companion to understand the dense text. Thank you!

Nice! Looking forward to this series!

Is his novel Nausea going to be mentioned in this series? I read the novel and since then it has left a mark on me.I think it is brilliant. I try to read also Being and Nothingness but it is very hard. I am grateful for your work!!

[@SingularityasSublimity]

Thank you for your comment. I'm pretty sure it will come up at some point. Sadly I haven't read it in about 20 years, so I have to return to it before speaking about it. This would be as good of a time as any to do so!

Let’s goo. I just got a copy a few months ago and it’s a monster to read.

Ay! It's the first work of philosophy I actually read for myself! Also, what's up with Proust? Dude plays a large role in D&G as well. Eventually I'll get around to In Search of Lost Time, I guess.

French philosophers love their literary figures and artists and are the wellspring for much philosophizing. Proust is such a richly descriptive writer. Mallarmé and Baudelaire are also highly prominent in 20th century French philosophy.
