«Los secuestrados de Altona» is the play by Jean-Paul Sartre, published by Alianza Editorial in paperback (279 pages, in Spanish).
Set in postwar Germany, the play portrays a family marked by guilt and the horrors of war. Sartre presents a drama of ideas in which characters, trapped by the past, confront historical responsibility and the failure of communication; the stage space functions as a moral tribunal.
Edition from the El libro de bolsillo collection, Literature section, number 880, translated by Aurora Bernárdez.
For readers of theatre and philosophy, with an interest in the moral dilemmas of postwar Europe.
Jean-Paul Charles Aymard Sartre was a French philosopher, playwright, novelist, screenwriter, political activist, biographer, and literary critic, considered a leading figure in 20th-century French philosophy and Marxism. Sartre was one of the key figures in the philosophy of existentialism. His work has influenced sociology, critical theory, post-colonial theory, and literary studies. He was awarded the 1964 Nobel Prize in Literature despite attempting to refuse it, saying that he always declined official honors and that "a writer should not allow himself to be turned into an institution."
