ORG : Jean Paul Sartre, Existentialism, Philosophy, History. Sartre and Camus in New York. The Stone is a forum for contemporary philosophers and other thinkers on issues both timely and timeless. In December 1944, Albert Camus, then editor of Combat, the main newspaper of the French Resistance, made Jean-Paul Sartre an offer he couldn’t refuse: the job of American correspondent. Perhaps, in light of the perpetual tension and subsequent acrimonious split between the two men, he was glad to get him out of Paris. What is certain is that Sartre was delighted to go. He’d had enough of the austerities and hypocrisies of post-liberation France and had long fantasized about the United States. Myth of Sisyphus.
