Abstract

AndrÃ© SuarÃ¨s was a leading figure in the literary field of the 1920s and 1930s: he published widely in the best-known journals including in the same critically important journal, the NRF, as Sartre, in the late thirties. Though little known today, this second-generation symbolist writer gave powerful expression to a vision of man, contingency and transcendence which had developed amongst artists of the ârestricted field of productionâ in the nineteenth century. This chapter argues that the fundamental concepts and relationships which structure Sartreâs early writings, most notably La NausÃ©e and LâEtre et le nÃ©ant, correspond to the broad lines of this artistic vision of the world which was firmly rooted in certain of his literary predecessors and had been brought to a high point of refinement in the early twentieth century by SuarÃ¨s.
