Aesthetics in Sartre and Camus examines the ideas
on aesthetics expressed in the oeuvres of the two French
authors. The dispute that arose following the publication
of Camus' L'homme révolté and Sartre's
criticism of the book culminated in the break up of their
friendship in 1952, thereby underlining the differences
in the authors' thinking. But by observing the function
and significance of art and freedom in their works, fundamental
correspondences and areas of agreement are revealed in Sartre's
and Camus' writings and are analysed in the present study.
