“Sind die Anderen die Hölle?“ Die Philosophie in Jean-Paul Sartres Drama "Geschlossene Gesellschaft"

In the organizer's words:

"Are the others hell?"

Philosophy in Jean-Paul Sartre's drama "Closed Society"

Are the others hell? - Philosophy in Jean-Paul Sartre's drama "Closed Society"
"Hell, that's the others" is one of the most famous quotes from the philosopher Jean-Paul Sartre. It comes from the drama "Closed Society", which premiered in 1944 and is about three people who spend eternity together in an elegant salon after their death. They soon realize that they are inflicting their own and each other's agony - without any physical violence.
What does all this mean and what can we still learn from Sartre's philosophy today?
In this lecture, you will learn what Sartre actually wanted to tell us with the sentence "Hell is the others" and how he challenges us to lead an authentic and committed life.
