Episode Details

This lecture discusses the French Existentialist philosopher, Jean-Paul Sartre's play, No Exit, and focuses on the setting of the work, which is a particular version of hell where some of the dead, specifically three people, Joseph Garcin, Inèz Serrano, and Estelle Rigault, are condemned to be for eternity. Each of the three portrays or betrays themselves as being a certain type of person, and they will attempt to find ways to exist within the space together, unsuccessfully, since in some sense, "hell is other people".
