Examines the image of ""the Jew"" in Sartre's work to rethink not only his oeuvre but also the role of the intellectual in France and the politics and ethics of existentialism. It explores more broadly how French identity is defined through the abstraction and allegorization of ""the Jew"" and examines the role anti-antisemitic intellectuals play in this process.
