Books
Iconic French novelist, playwright, and essayist Jean-Paul Sartre is widely recognised as one of the most important philosophers of the twentieth century, and his work has remained relevant and thought-provoking through the decades. 'On Revolution' consists of a long essay in two parts in which Sartre dwells upon the 'myth' of revolution and goes on to analyse revolutionary ideas in fascism and, especially, Marxism. In the second essay, Sartre examines the figure of the artist and his conscience, especially in relation to communism.
