Jean-Paul Sartre, No Exit - Inez Seranno, The Sadist - Sadler's Stories

from Sadler's Lectures · host Lectures on classic and contemporary philosophical texts and thinkers by Gregory B. Sadler

This lecture discusses the French Existentialist philosopher, Jean-Paul Sartre's play, No Exit, and focuses on one of the central characters trapped in the room with the other two, Inez Seranno, a postal clerk who describes herself as cruel, and who behaves sadistically towards the others. A lesbian, she pursued her cousin's wife and turned her against her husband, and she attempts to seduce Estelle. She also seems to have more insight into their situation and less illusions about how they can make it liveable for eternity To support my ongoing work, go to my Patreon site - www.patreon.com/sadler If you'd like to make a direct contribution, you can do so here - www.paypal.me/ReasonIO You can find over 3500 philosophy videos in my main YouTube channel - www.youtube.com/user/gbisadler Purchase Jean-Paul Sartre's No Exit - https://amzn.to/3Lv5uU6
