A antropologia existencial em "O existencialismo é um humanismo" de Sartre

Abstract

This study aims to investigate the anthropological issue of man, his place in the world, and his existence. The problem of this work consists of addressing this issue based on the existentialist perspective of Jean-Paul Sartre. For the understanding of the theme, we use the work 'Existentialism is a Humanism' (1946), in which the philosophical question of man as a subject who exists is presented under an anthropological bias. The goal of this work is to analyze the presence of existential anthropology, seeking to understand the meaning of humanism as conceptually defined by Sartre. It is intended to demonstrate how despair and helplessness, in the face of the discovery of nothingness, lead man to seek freedom and responsibility in his daily actions. Thus, it is hoped to contribute to the understanding of how Sartre arrives at the question of man and his existence.
