About This Item
London: Methuen & Co Ltd, 1962. First edition in English of Sartre's work on the nature of psychoanalysis and phenomenology. Octavo, original cloth. Translated by Philip Mairet and with a preface by Mary Warnock. Near fine in a near fine dust jacket. The Esquisse d'une theorie des emotions was first published in Paris in 1939 when Sartre was thirty-four. "The essay is the best source for Sartre's theoretical views on the nature of psychology, and it contains doctrines which were later incorporated, though without full discussion of their origin, in his major work L'Etre et le Neant (Being and Nothingness)" (Mary Warnock, Preface to this edition).
