Abstract

This article aims to analyze the notion of creation in Sartre's thought. This notion is not predominant in the first texts. We try to demonstrate their place in the philosopher's thinking. First, we turn to the text Cahiers pour une morale where such a notion occupies a fundamental place. Then, we show how this analysis is resumed in the Critique of Raison Dialectique. This analysis will explain the content of creation as a process of singularization so that the being of the individual or his freedom is taken as a singular quality, this is, as meaning of being while it is finitude. Finally, this configuration alludes to relations according to his gift and generosity as existence in the world.
