Jean Paul Sartre's 'No Exit'
[ send me this paper ]
(work is also known called 'Hois Clos') In this 8 page paper, the writer argues that the concept 'Hell Is Other People' is the primary theme of this classic existentialist drama ('No Exit' is a one-act play by Sartre) and it is just as resonant today as it was more than fifty years ago. Sartre's existentialist philosophy is examined in great analytical detail and the paper remains most concerned with explaining precisely what Sartre meant by 'No Exit' and how it applies to everyone's life.

No Exit by Jean Paul Sartre
[ send me this paper ]
It is commonly believed that the theme presented by Jean Paul Sartre in his 1944 play, No Exit was 'Hell is other people'. By exploring the other writings of Sartre one can begin to understand that the concept he was elucidating in the play was the exact opposite of the externalization of negative emotions. Rather, the play was another forum he chose in which to answer to the critics of the philosophy of existentialism. This 5 page paper asserts that the theme espoused by Sartre is actually the quest for freedom as defined by the individual's acceptance of oneself and the choices made throughout one's lifetime. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
