La littérature dans le champ philosophique français de la première moitié du XXe siècle

Abstract

A French/German comparison underlines the specific suspicion of the French institutional philosophy of the first half of the century towards literature, which is revealed by the composition of philosophical reviews. More conflictual than Bachelard’s or Sartre’s, Jean Wahl’s case illustrates the difficulty to conciliate a universitary position and poetical interests before the reception of Heidegger solved the contradiction.
