Abstract
Typically monographs on Sartre adopt a sideways approach, and thus start by categorising under fixed headings such as ‘existentialism’,‘phenomenology’,‘Marxism’, etc.This is a tried and tested method, and one that gives good results, given that it is hard to summarise a philosopher whose work not only spans a 50-year period, but which also transcends the normal boundaries we typically construct between, say, psychology and philosophy. Hatzimoysis gives us a breath of fresh air, through introducing Sartre in another way. He attempts to take ‘the less travelled path of introducing Sartre’s thought by focusing just on specific parts of Sartre’s work'.
