København, 1946. Lille 4to. Ubesk. i orig. omsl. Ryggen med brugsspor, små rifter ved kapitæler, indre forreste fals lidt svag, ellers ren og pæn. 122, (2) pp.Small 4to. Uncut in the orig. wrappers. Spine a bit worn, small tears at capitals, inner front hinge a bit weak, otherwise nice and clean. 122, (2) pp.
Originaludgaven af den første danske oversættelse af det andet af Sartres to filosopfiske hovedværker, som begge udøvede stor indflydelse på det 20. århundredes filosofi og bidrog væsentligt til udviklingen af eksistentialismen. Den danske oversættelse er trykt samme år som originalen, og udgør formentlig den nydeligste udgave typografisk set. Værket er trykt særdeles nydeligt, med brede marginer og på godt papir. The first edition of the first Dansih translation of the second of Sartre's two main philosophical works, which have both influenced 20th century philosophy greatly, and contributed immensely to the development of existentialism in general. The Danish translation is printed the same year as the French first edition, and typographically probably constitutes the best edition. It is a very nice print with wide margins and on good, thick paper. ""Existentialism is a Humanism"" became one of Sartre's most widely read and most critcized works, and it caused great controversies and uproar at the time of its appearance"" -as opposed to his ""L'Être et le Néant"", all of Sartre's critics actually read this work, and so did huge parts of the population, causing the book to appear in huge numbers after the publication of the first edition.The work is the literary re-working of an exposition given by Sartre at a conference in October 1945, where he caused a scandalous discussion, which among other things led to the fact that all references to the existentialist T.E. Lawrence were omitted from the work when it appeared in print. ""Cette conférence marqua une date dans l'histoire anecdotique de l'existemtialisme..."" (Contat & Rybalka p. 131).""L'Existentialisme est un Humanisme"" fut l'un des ouvrages les plus lus et les plus critiqués de Sartre et suscita de considérables malentendus. Comme l'a bien vu M.-A. Burnier dans ""Les Existentialistes et la politique"" (p. 31), ""l'importance prise par ces pages semble due à la paresse d'un bon nombre de critiques qui hésitant à lire ""L'Être et le Néant"" et qui furent heureaux de pouvoir attaquer Sartre sans grande fatique et avec bonne conscience après avoir parcouru 141 pages."" Il est bon de rappeler cependant que l'ouvrage constitue une assez mauvaise introduction à la philosophie de Sartre, surtout pour un public non averti..."" (Contat & Rybalka p. 132). Sartre himself also disowned great parts of this work, which makes it all the more interesting, since it is the only one of his works of which he has done so. The work was reprinted numerous times during the first years, and the first edition (on vellum-paper) is very difficult to come by.

L'Ange du morbide (Conte). [In: La Revue sans titre. Organe de Défense des Jeunes. Deuxième èdition]. - [SARTRE'S FIRST PUBLICATION]
(Paris, 1923). Lex 8vo. Entire issue present, with the original printed wrappers. Some tears to spine and a bit of wear to extremities. A fagile publication. Ff. (6-7). [Entire issue: 8 ff.).
Sartre's extremely scarce first publication, in the also exceedingly scarce first number of the ""La Revue sans titre"", here in the second edition from the same year, which is of equal scarcity to the first. When Contat and Rybalka were making the bibliography of the writings of Sartre, they had great difficulty in finding the interesting rebellion publication ""La Revue sans titre"", which was - and is - not present in any French library. In fact, they finally borrowed a run of the magazine from M. Jean Gaulmier, professor of literature in Strasbourg, who possessed the only collection of the periodical that they could track down. The ""L'Ange du morbid"" had been reproduced in 1947 by Marc Beigbeder in his ""L'Homme Sartre"", but not quite in its entirety, and Contat and Rybalka thus printed the text again, for the second time since 1923, at the back of their Sartre-bibliography (1970) as the first part of the second appendix, which has the half-title ""Textes retrouvés"" (rediscovered texts). This interesting story which constitutes Sartre's first publication was published when he was merely 18 years old. In a strongly satirical tone Sartre tells the story of a mediocre professor's adventure with a young patient who has tuberculoses. The main character, the professor of a small provincial school, constitutes the pre-figuration of the highly unsympathetic character that occupies his following publications. The ""Revue sans titre"", of which we here have number one in its entirety, is also in itself interesting. The director of the publication is Charle Fraval, and the editorial secretary is Roger Letac. The publication claims to be ""in defense of the Young"", and on the front wrapper it states ""Those who suffer from the mercantilism of literature, those whose talent is suppressed by the literary magnates, in short all the Young, have reason to read ""REVUE SANS TITRE"", the only organ in defense of the Young"" (own translation, original: ""Ceux qui souffrent du mercantilisme de la literature, ceux don't le talent est étouffé par les magnats des letters, tous les jeunes en un mot, ont intérêt à lire la ""Revue sans titre"" seul organe de defense des Jeunes.""

Paris, 1936. 8vo. Bound uncut with the original printed green and grey wrappers, also the backstrip, in an exquisite dark green morocco binding with gilt horizontal (author, place, year) and vertical (title, in large capitals) lettering to spine and beautiful lacquered marbled green and grey paper laid in on boards, covering all but a ""frame"" of ab. 3 mm.

(4), 162, (2, -Table) pp.
First edition of Sartre's first book, of which no numbered or large paper copies were printed, and which only appeared thus. Published when Sartre was 30 years old, ""L'Imagination"" constitutes his first full philosophical work and the first presentation of his basic arguments concerning phenomenology, consciousness and intentionality, which he later developed in full, and which came to have a profound influence on 20th century philosophy.Sartre, who on the title-page is described as ""professeur au lycée du Havre"", was requested to write the present work by Professor H. Delacroix, who was the supervisor on his dissertation. Before establishing his central arguments about ""Imagination"", Sartre famously criticizes earlier theories of imagination, in particular those of Descartes, Leibnitz, and Hume. He goes on to discussing psychological theories of imagination, including Bergson - the critique of whom offended for instance Meeau-Ponty, who otherwise praised Sartre's book. Finally, Sartre provides a highly important interpretation of Husserl's theory of imagination, which foreshadows the phenomenological way of understanding imagination that was to dominate the decades to come. As thus, the work constitutes an important work in the history of phenomenology. and of 20th century philosophy.Contat & Rybalka: 36/8
