CASTRO, Fabio Caprio Leite de. Ethical experience, normativity and ethical paradox according to Jean-Paul Sartre: the conferences of cornell and Rome. Estud. pesqui. psicol. []. 2008, 8, 2. ISSN 1808-4281.
The article considers a systematic boarding of two conferences written for Sartre, one for the Conference Morale e Società, at Rome (1964) and the other for the University of Cornell, in the United States (1965). The first one, whose extracts had been published in Les Écrits de Sartre, effectively was presented by the philosopher. The second lecture was, for political reasons, never presented and was recently published in a volume of the Revue Les Temps Modernes. The objective of this exposition is to articulate the concepts boarded for Sartre in these conferences. That is: the ethical experience, the normativity and the ethical paradox. In this fashion, one intends to stand that we can extract of such thought an ethical conception, established at the same time in a critical existentialism and marxism.
