"Nausea"by Jean-Paul-Sartre, is the expression of Sartre's early thought by the way of literature, and the main themes in his another very important philosophical work—"Bing and Nothingness", can be found in this novel. The purpose of this essay, on the one hand , focuses on the analysis of the text of this novel; on the other hand, relevantly and tightly relates this novel to"Bing and Nothingness","the Transcendence of the Ego","the Emotion Outline of a Theory"and"Existentialism is a Humanism"and so on, which are Sartre's philosophical works in his early time, to try to show the happening and development of"nausea"—a kind of psychic reflection. In the end we can see that it is"nausea"that shows people the way to resist the absurdity of Bing, furthermore encourages people to explain who s/he is, discovers the endlessly rich possibilities that people keep potentially and jumps out of so many limits which are set by people themselves. Like this, people's life can relatively be more whole.Chapter one of this essay—"recalling the history of the essentialism"which mainly introduces several kinds of outlooks of essentialism which continuously and generally influence the people's activity from Socrate's time to the Renaissance even now. This is the general background against the happening of"nausea"; Chapter two—"from'nausea'to the road resisting the absurdity of Bing". This is the focus of this essay, which discuss the meaning of"nausea"through the happening , development of"nausea", which is especially related to several main themes tightly in"Bing and Nothingness", such as"Pre-reflective Cogito","Being for-itself","Being in-self","Bad faith"and so on. This essay tries to show that it is"nausea"that leads people into the road resisting the absurdity of Bing through"the appearance of the'nausea'"and"the theoretical analysis on the appearance of the'nausea'".
