UK Sartre Society conference 2025 Maison Française d’Oxford

Jean-Paul Sartre (1905-1980) was a philosopher, novelist, playwright, biographer, journalist, and political activist. His broad and sophisticated philosophical vision contributes to contemporary moral and political theory, aesthetic and literary theory, psychoanalysis and psychiatry, phenomenology and cognitive science, theology and philosophy of religion, and more. His novels are still read and his plays still produced.

The Society
The UK Sartre Society is dedicated to the study and application of French existentialism and phenomenology, focusing primarily on the works of Simone de Beauvoir (1908-1986) and Jean-Paul Sartre (1905-1980). We hold a major international conference every summer and edit one of the two issues of the journal Sartre Studies International each year. Membership is open to everyone.

We are delighted to host the annual conference of the UK Sartre Society.
