What did Sartre think of existentialism? How did he object to the criticisms of communists and Christians that existentialists are moody, godless nihilists? Why did Sartre understand his project as optimistic?
These are some of the questions covered in this walkthrough of Sartre's 1946 lecture called "Existentialism is a Humanism." This exposition is a prelude to a future talk on Heidegger's "Letter on Humanism."
