PASSAGE I
The translation in 1947 of Jean-Paul Sartre's lecture,
"Existentialism is a Humanism" (1945), ensured that
the term existentialism would enter into the vocabulary
of American thought and culture. Existentialism is
notoriously difficult to define, especially since it
claims a varied philosophical background, drawing
from Rene Descartes, Soren Aabye Kietkegaard,
Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche, and Martin Heidegger.
Moreover, as Gabriel Marcel and others anno ced, an
existentialist could believe in God as miglfM_!>a

e popular press in America had focused too
on Saltre' s personality and too little on his ideas.
ｾ Ｚｸ｡ｲｮｩﾷ＠ ration of the initial dissemination of French
existentialism in American popular culture reveals a
number of intertwined themes. First, much of the
American tascination with French existentialism was
"cultural capital;' the power of certain cultural
representations to command prestige and respect.
Thus, from the start, fashion and idea coexisted to
America. Second, American coverage of French
existentialists such as Sartric, Simone de Beauvoir, and
Albert Camus exemplified what historian Daniel
Boorstin calls the predominance of the celebrity in
existentialism in America was as much about the
image of the intellectual as the content of existentialist
ideas. Third, Sartre and other existentialists were
portrayed in American popular culture as exemplary of
"an erratic left-bank bohernianism," an irrage that fit
poorly Vlith post-war celebrations of the American
intellectual as a sober minded, optimistic, and
respectable citizen. By popularising French
existentialists as celebrities and associating their
pessimistic philosophy with the traurra France had
experienced in World War 11, the popular press
undermined their reception by the American
intellectual comnunity. Many considered
existentialism a passing vogue, not centrally applicable
to the life of the mind in America. Thus, the cultural
