This article compares Jean-Paul Sartre's theory imagination, particularly as explicated in his philosophical work, The imaginary (1940)., with his novel La Nausee (1938). Following his mentor, edmund hussrl, Sartre criticizes "the naive metaphysics of the image" and views imagination as an act of consciousness. He futher holds that imagination operates as a quasi-observation and posits its object as nothingness; in phenomenological terms, the image is given as "absent to intuition". Sartre also distinguishes purely mental objects from non-mental objects,, all of which can be found in his novel La Nausee . The meeting of the protagonist of this novel, Roquentin, with these various objects creates in him the feeling of nauses, a sort of sickness with reality. The character soon realizes that what he fears most is existence itself. What can be found in this novel but not in The Imaginary includes, among other things, the ethical suggestion that what we call "essences" can be deceiving and that we must not hinge our individual existence on somebody else's. Moreover, the failure to distinguish the real from the imaginary will result in bad faith. We will find these themes more extensively developed in Sartre's famous work, Being and Nothingness (1943).
