Description: |
History (much like his contemporaries) has tended to judge Camus harshly--as mediocre philosopher, conflicted man of the left and, worst of all, apologist for French imperialism. Yet, as David Sherman argues in this rewarding new study, a sensitive reading of the entirety of Camus's writings reveals both a power and unity of philosophical purpose. |
Synopsis: |
Reflecting the profound influence he continues to exert on popular consciousness, Camus examines the complete body of works of French author and philosopher Albert Camus, providing a comprehensive analysis of Camus' most important works-most notably The Myth of Sisyphus, The Stranger, The Fall, The Plague, and The Rebel-within the framework of his basic ethical orientation.* Makes Camus' concerns clear in terms that will resonate with contemporary readers* Reveals the unity and integrity of Camus' writings and political activities* Discusses Camus' ongoing relevance by showing how he prefigures many postmodern positions in philosophy, literature, and politics |
