EXISTENTIALISM AND MODERN ANALYSIS

In his writing , Sartre adheres to the famous construct of " the theory of compromise , as can be seen in his novel "Nausea . This " theory of compromise " theme lends itself to the tenets of post-structuralism Sartre 's writings bear much truth , rather , they are all excellent and sublime in their characteristic beauty . Jean-Paul is the father of Existentialist philosophy , in the realm of Literary Studies and the Existentialist movement has been extremely popular amongst Marxists for it seems that Sartre 's world view appealed greatly to Marxist sentiments
