Camus et l’absurde : une philosophie de la révolte et de l’affirmation
Albert Camus explore l'absurde, né du choc entre notre quête de sens et l'indifférence du monde. Face à ce dilemme, il rejette le suicide et l'évasion, prônant la révolte lucide et l'affirmation de la vie. Une philosophie qui invite à embrasser l'existence dans toute son intensité, malgré - ou grâce à - sa nature absurde. #Camus #Philosophie #Absurde Albert Camus : L'absurde comme tremplin vers…
Recommended reading, and more timely than ever.
(Bracing and hopeful, despite the title under which it was published in English)

In my free time I therefore read about #politics, #language & #religion but also enjoy #horror, mostly the supernatural kind.
I've written two 150k word "books" so far but never got to edit them up to any publishable standard.
It's going to be a 6-7 volume science-phantasy series, so I'm also heavily into #worldbuilding.
( #Δꙮ unrelated )
I try to get into #philosophy but have barely read any actual primary writings outside #Plato & #Camus (yes, I know) in full.

@smellsofbikes I agree. My career was in Pharma and Biotech. Unfortunately, I believe we need a #HotStoveProblem. We have come to a point where an event so sever and damaging must occur where even the oligarchy that is driving the US and much of the world must suffer. We need #Camus. We need #ThePlague. https://youtu.be/vSYPwX4NPg4
Aaand finished. What an exquisite work! The outdated style glimmers with elegance. Give it a go; you'll be glad if you hang in there! Weird (and essay-worthy) to alternate between it and a paper about #Camus's constructions of #mortality in The Outsider. MAN did I miss some biiig stuff in that tiny high school #textbook when I was a teenager!

Here's a short piece unpacking a key insight about how the absurd manifests in our lives from Albert Camus' work The Myth of Sisyphus.

...Buch "Die Pest" (La peste) von Albert #Camus.
Das erinnerte mich an meinen Erstkontakt mit diesem Autor, als ich im Französischunterricht L'Etranger (Der Fremde) lesen musste.

Tout est en place: l’arsenal législatif, le fonctionnement institutionnel, l’habitude de l’obéissance, la surveillance globale, le racisme intrinsèque.
Caligula est déjà à l’Elysée; ses troupes s’apprêtent à envahir l’Assemblée. Chez #Camus, l’empereur fou assume: il me faut des coupables. Et ils le sont tous.

Was de bekende filosoof en Nobelprijswinnaar Albert Camus een centrist die een hekel had aan mensen die opkomen tegen discriminatie?
Nee, eerder het tegendeel. Maar Bas Heijne herschrijft de geschiedenis graag.
In de @nrc_nl krijgt Heijne dit weekend een groot artikel waarin hij mag vertellen over zijn liefde voor Albert #Camus.
En dat artikel is slecht genoeg om een draadje aan te spenderen
