Title: "“Like a weed on the compost of catholicity….” – Jean-Paul Sartre’s Self-Division and France’s Religious Divide."
Author: Clémentine Fauré
Abstract: The article is a rereading of Sartre's autobiography, The Words, through the lens of France's long-lasting quarrel between Protestantism and Catholicism. Sartre, raised both as a Catholic and a Protestant, places this religious schism at the crux of his text, and at the center of his writer's posture. It shows that the dialectics between the individual and the community, solitude and communion, and pride and humility — between, in short, "protestanticity" and "catholicity" — which informs The Words and is crucial to Sartre's work, is in fact superimposed onto the religious divide.
