Transhistoricity and the impossibility of aufhebung

Menachem Brinker

pp. 191-198

Abstract

Some of those who read Sartre's lecture on Kierkegaard "L"universel singulier"1 were surprised to find there the notion of transhistoricité (transhistoricity). Yet it is this notion and the argument based upon it which offers in my opinion the key to a true understanding of J.-P. Sartre's writings in the late fifties and the sixties, mainly Questions de méthode (QM) and Critique de la raison dialectique (CRD).2
