| Summary | "De la sincérité envers soi-même" by Jacques Rivière is a philosophical essay written in the early 20th century. The book delves into the complex nature of sincerity, particularly focusing on the distinction between being sincere with oneself versus with others. Rivière argues that true sincerity is a demanding and intricate process that requires an ongoing effort to understand and express one's true self, which can often be elusive and fraught with danger. At the start of the text, Rivière contrasts the simplicity of being sincere to others with the much more challenging concept of self-sincerity. He posits that while it may seem effortless to express emotions that align with social expectations, true sincerity demands introspection and a deliberate effort to uncover deeper and often uncomfortable truths about oneself. He elaborates on the idea that many of our initial feelings are merely superficial, and he emphasizes the importance of engaging with the more profound, hidden aspects of our psyche. This opening sets the stage for a profound exploration of the relationship between sincerity, the self, and the complexities inherent in personal authenticity.
