项目摘要

The subject of my thesis will be the relationship between history and politics through the prism of the French Revolution in the works of Sartre andArendt. Both authors produced an original understanding of our political modernity and accorded a central role to freedom. It led them to analyse theFrench Revolution as a turning point for freedom in world history, and I want to analyse this intellectual move. For that purpose, I will focus on the"Critique of Dialectical Reason", that Sartre started to publish in 1960, and "On Revolution", an essay Arendt published in 1963. There are severaltheses I want to examine, and among them stands the relationship between freedom and social science in the writing of history. That relationship beingillustrated by the French Revolution in the works of both authors, I also want to study the concept of revolution itself. The latter will then raise the issueof violence, which I will examine as an opposition point between Sartre and Arendt. Finally, this work implies to note that phenomenology links the twothinkers together. Consequently, part of my work will be devoted to an analyse of their shared phenomenological framework in their understanding ofpolitics, tracing it back to earlier texts ("Being and Nothingness" for Sartre, "The Human Condition" for Arendt). My aim will be to show that their workspresent phenomenological convergences that have to be unveiled in order to seize the meaning of their use of history for politics.

我论文的主题将是通过萨特和阿伦特著作中法国大革命的棱镜来探讨历史与政治之间的关系。两位作者都对我们的政治现代性提出了独到的理解，并赋予自由以核心作用。它引导他们将法国大革命分析为世界历史上自由的转折点，我想分析这一智力动向。为此，我将重点关注萨特1960年开始发表的《辩证理性批判》和阿伦特1963年发表的文章《论革命》。我想考察几篇论文，其中包括历史写作中自由与社会科学的关系。两位作者的作品中的法国大革命都说明了这种关系，我也想研究革命概念本身。后者将提出暴力问题，我将把这个问题作为萨特和阿伦特之间的对立点来考察。最后，这项工作意味着要注意现象学将两个思想家联系在一起。因此，我的部分工作将致力于分析他们在理解政治时所共有的现象学框架，并将其追溯到早期的文本（萨特的《存在与虚无》，阿伦特的《人类状况》）。我的目的是展示他们的作品呈现出现象学的趋同，为了抓住他们将历史用于政治的意义，必须揭开这些趋同的面纱。
