One of the most influential works of this century, The Myth of Sisyphus and Other Essays is a crucial exposition of existentialist thought. Influenced by works such as Don Juan and the novels of Kafka, these essays begin with a meditation on suicide; the question of living or not living in a universe devoid of order or meaning. With lyric eloquence, Albert Camus brilliantly posits a way out of despair, reaffirming the value of personal existence, and the possibility of life lived with dignity and authenticity.
Born in Algeria in 1913, Albert Camus published The Stranger—now one of the most widely read novels of this century—in 1942. Celebrated in intellectual circles, Camus was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1957. On January 4, 1960, he was killed in a car accident.
Camus' certainly a literary figure rather than a philosopher. ---Christina. 读完The Myth of Sisyphus 解决了一个一直以来的疑问，为什么在大学哲学系里加缪是被忽略不记的。全篇写得最好的应当是后记对卡夫卡小说中的希望与荒诞的研讨，喜欢局外人的读者不妨读读卡夫卡的变形计，城堡，审判……吧！

没有了自由意志为前提，似乎可信度以及合理性立马增加很多。但如果我说某些地方相比之下我更买萨特的单。不过我也逐渐开始领会在我初期迷恋存在主义的时候，有人对我说的“存在主义在哲学层面上其实是站不住脚的。” 无论加缪的荒诞还是萨特的自由选择，都存在不能自圆其说的地方。

荒诞是世界的不可解与人非弄清楚不可的愿望之间的冲突；是人对永恒的渴望与人之必死之间的矛盾；是抱有希望的精神和使人失望的世界之间的分离。 无论是自杀还是宗教（加缪以此否定了舍斯托夫与克尔凯郭尔）都只是在无解的世界中，将压垮他们的东西神圣化，通过跳跃来回避荒诞。 而荒诞无法被消除也无法被否定，唯一的办法是体验这种切肤之痛，直视世界的无意义，于日复一日的意识与反抗中，昭示人之尊严。 “One must ... 荒诞是世界的不可解与人非弄清楚不可的愿望之间的冲突；是人对永恒的渴望与人之必死之间的矛盾；是抱有希望的精神和使人失望的世界之间的分离。 无论是自杀还是宗教（加缪以此否定了舍斯托夫与克尔凯郭尔）都只是在无解的世界中，将压垮他们的东西神圣化，通过跳跃来回避荒诞。 而荒诞无法被消除也无法被否定，唯一的办法是体验这种切肤之痛，直视世界的无意义，于日复一日的意识与反抗中，昭示人之尊严。 “One must imagine Sisyphus happy” 真是又悲壮又温柔。（居然刚好是第500本诶 (展开)
