Document Details : Title: Vers une nouvelle polarité entre associationnisme et phénoménologie Subtitle: Les sources de la première théorie sartrienne de l'image et leur évolution après sa découverte de la phénoménologie (1927-1936) Author(s): BOUSQUET, Chloé Journal: Etudes phénoménologiques - Phenomenological Studies Volume: 9 Date: 2025 Pages: 27-50 DOI: 10.2143/EPH.9.0.3293689 Abstract : This article presents an analysis of the evolution of Sartre’s conception of his pre-phenomenological philosophical and psychological sources between his dissertation on the image, L’Image dans la vie psychologique: rôle et nature, submitted in 1927, and the first book he published on this topic about ten years later, after he discovered Husserlian phenomenology, L’Imagination (1936). Against Sartre’s assertion that one should 'start again from scratch' for conceiving the image after the integration of the phenomenological method, the hypothesis tested in this study is that Sartre’s position towards several of his pre-phenomenological sources from 1927 changed after his contact with phenomenology and that he reinvestigated some authors and references differently in 1936. By examining several rewritings of sources such as the Romantics, Auguste Flach, Hume, Bergson and Binet, a new explanatory axis for Sartre’s vision of the theoretical history of the image arises: the opposition between associationism, as reconstituted genealogy, and phenomenology. |
