Description

ALBERT CAMUS (1913-1960) was a French author, journalist, and philosopher. He was awarded the 1957 Nobel Prize for Literature "for his important literary production, which with clear-sighted earnestness illuminates the problems of the human conscience in our times."

His origin in Algeria and his experiences there in the thirties were dominating influences in his thought and work. Of semi-proletarian parents, early attached to intellectual circles of strongly revolutionary tendencies, with a deep interest in philosophy (only chance prevented him from pursuing a university career in that field), he came to France at the age of twenty-five. The man and the times met: Camus joined the resistance movement during the occupation and after the liberation was a columnist for the newspaper Combat. But his journalistic activities had been chiefly a response to the demands of the time; in 1947 Camus retired from political journalism and, besides writing his fiction and essays, was very active in the theatre as producer and playwright.

The essay THE MYTH OF SISYPHUS (1942) expounds Camus's notion of the absurd and of its acceptance with "the total absence of hope, which has nothing to do with despair, a continual refusal, which must not be confused with renouncement -- and a conscious dissatisfaction." Meursault, central character of THE STRANGER (1942), illustrates much of this essay: man as the nauseated victim of the absurd orthodoxy of habit, later -- when the young killer faces execution -- tempted by despair, hope, and salvation. Dr. Rieux of THE PLAGUE (1947), who tirelessly attends the plague-stricken citizens of Oran, enacts the revolt against a world of the absurd and of injustice, and confirms Camus's words: "We refuse to despair of mankind. Without having the unreasonable ambition to save men, we still want to serve them."

Other well-known works of Camus are THE FALL (1956) and EXILE AND THE KINGDOM (1957). His austere search for moral order found its aesthetic correlative in the classicism of his art. He was a stylist of great purity and intense concentration and rationality.
