Why ‘Finding Yourself' Is a Big Lie - Albert Camus (Absurdism). Albert Camus was a French-Algerian writer, and Nobel Prize laureate  who lived through war and loss, and he saw how life doesn't always offer clear answers. Instead of turning away from that uncertainty, he chose to face it. He wanted to understand what it really means to be alive in a world that doesn't hand us a ready-made purpose. We're often told to “find your purpose” or “find yourself,” as if who we are is already out there waiting  for the right moment, the right people, the right place. But Camus questioned that. He didn't believe there was a perfect version of us hidden somewhere, waiting to be discovered. And there's a real sense of relief in that. If there's no single identity we're supposed to uncover, then we're not late. We're not falling behind. We're not missing out on some secret everyone else already understands. We're not lost - we're simply becoming, shaping who we are through the choices we make and the life we live. We learn by living. We change. We try things. We let go of what doesn't feel true anymore and slowly build a life that feels more honest. When we stop believing there's one “correct” self we must find, we no longer wait for a dramatic moment of clarity. We start paying attention to what's right in front of us - the next small step, the next experience, the next chance to grow. In this video, we're going to explore why searching for a “true self” is a lie - how that belief can keep us stuck, and why embracing life's uncertainty can actually help us move forward, all from the philosophy of Albert Camus.  So here's Why ‘Finding Yourself' Is a Lie from the philosophy of Albert Camus 01. Understand the Absurd 02. Stop Waiting to “Find Yourself” 03. Rebel against the absurd 04. Rebel with Passion 05. Define Your Values, Not Labels 06. Experiment Boldly  I hope you enjoyed listening to why searching for a “true self” is a lie - how that belief can keep us stuck, and why embracing life's uncertainty can actually help us move forward, all from the philosophy of Albert Camus.

Phil Svitek and Marisa Serafini (@serafinitv) dive into Albert Camus' Exile and the Kingdom, a collection of six vivid, unsettling, and deeply human short stories exploring what it means to be isolated yet yearning for connection. Written in 1957 against the backdrop of the Algerian War, these stories capture individuals at decisive moments—moments of moral conflict, longing, rebellion, and revelation.We explore Camus' legacy as a French-Algerian writer, Resistance journalist, and Nobel laureate whose ideas on the Absurd, Revolt, and moral responsibility shaped the intellectual landscape of the 20th century. Phil and Marisa walk through each story—from Janine's desert epiphany to the silent cask-workers, the tortured missionary, the conflicted schoolteacher, and the weary artist—unpacking the symbols, emotional arcs, and philosophical questions that define Camus' work.We discuss the recurring themes of exile, identity, freedom, guilt, spiritual hunger, and the longing for a “kingdom” where meaning and belonging finally converge. Plus, we compare our favorite stories, reflect on what resonated most personally, and consider why Camus' writing still feels urgent in today's fractured world.Up next in our Bookmarked series:-Violet Thistlewaite Is Not a Villain Anymore – Emily Krempholtz (Dec 2025)-The Phantom Tollbooth - Norton Juster (Jan 2026) -Marisa pick (Feb 2026)-The Lost Bookshop – Evie Woods (Mar 2026)-Marisa pick (Apr 2026)-How to Solve Your Own Murder – Kristen Perrin (May 2026)

Au bonheur des livres s'intéresse cette semaine aux amitiés littéraires en accueillant Marc Weitzmann, récent lauréat du prix Femina Essai pour « La Part sauvage » (Ed. Grasset), et Sylvie Le Bihan pour son beau roman « L'ami Louis » (Ed. Denoël). Le premier propose ainsi un essai sur le grand écrivain américain Philip Roth (1933-2018), dont il ne livre pas exactement une biographie, mais plutôt le récit, passionnant, de l'amitié qui les a unis et qui est l'occasion de faire le point sur l'une des oeuvres les plus importantes, sans doute, de la deuxième moitié du XXe siècle. Sylvie Le Bihan, quant à elle, raconte de façon légèrement fictionnalisée l'amitié qui a rapproché Albert Camus et un grand romancier un peu oublié aujourd'hui, Louis Guilloux (1899-1980), l'auteur du « Sang noir », auquel sa famille a été lointainement liée. Le dialogue entre ces invités sera l'occasion pour Claire Chazal d'évoquer la question, plus que jamais contemporaine, du rapport des écrivains avec la société, en se demandant si la littérature n'est pas parfois, comme le disait Saint-John Perse de la poésie, la « mauvaise conscience de son temps » !

Kurz bevor die deutschen Truppen 1940 in Frankreich einmarschierten, beendete ein junger, algerisch-französischer Schriftsteller die Arbeit an seinem ersten Roman. Zwei Jahre später, am 19. Mai 1942, veröffentlichte Gallimard den Roman trotz deutscher Besatzung in Paris. Das Buch wurde als literarische Sensation gefeiert und avancierte zu einem der meistgedruckten französischen Romane des 20. Jahrhunderts. Das ist die Geschichte von «L'étranger», dem ersten Roman von Albert Camus. Er traf mit seiner Geschichte über den gleichgültigen Mörder Meursault den Nerv seiner Zeit. Seine Generation war tief desillusioniert durch die Weltkriege und den scheinbar unaufhaltsamen Aufstieg des Totalitarismus. Heute, 85 Jahre später, stehen wir wieder an einem ähnlichen Punkt. Wieder sind Ideale vom Sockel gestürzt, koloniale Konflikte flammen wieder auf, wieder scheint der Aufstieg des Totalitarismus nicht aufzuhalten. Albert Camus sah 1940 den Menschen in einer absurden Situation: Wir Menschen sehnen uns nach Sinn, die Welt aber ist sinnlos, ja sinnwidrig. Camus vergleicht den Menschen deshalb mit Sisyphos, der zur Strafe in der Unterwelt einen Felsbrocken einen Berg hinaufwälzen muss. Kurz vor dem Gipfel des Bergs entgleitet ihm der Brocken und rollt wieder ins Tal. Deshalb steht Sisyphos jeden Tag vor derselben sinnlosen Aufgabe. Es ist eine absurde Arbeit. Camus sagt nun aber, der Ausweg liege darin, dass Sisyphos diese Absurdität seines Tuns akzeptiere und seine Erfüllung im täglichen Kampf mit seinem Felsbrocken sehe. Er schreibt deshalb: «Der Kampf gegen Gipfel vermag ein Menschenherz auszufüllen. Wir müssen uns Sisyphos als einen glücklichen Menschen vorstellen.» Und heute, 85 Jahre später? Wie müssen wir uns Sisyphos heute vorstellen?Matthias Zehnder ist Autor und Medienwissenschaftler in Basel.

François Ozon met en scène ce roman majeur dʹAlbert Camus dans un noir et blanc radical et épuré. Meursault (Benjamin Voisin) peu après lʹenterrement de sa mère, entame une liaison avec Marie (Rebeca Marder). Cet homme indifférent au monde, sans consistance ni émotion, va tuer un homme, "lʹArabe". Son procès semble moins porter sur son crime que sur son indifférence au monde. François Ozon avec Pierre Philippe Cadert.

Consider human ecological loneliness and our longing for reconnection with all creation. What healing is available in an era defined by environmental loss and exploitation? Can we strengthen the fragile connection between modern society and the space we inhabit?“Loneliness is the symptom that desires its cure.”In this episode Macie Bridge welcomes writer, translator, and poet Laura Marris to reflect on her essay collection The Age of Loneliness, a meditation on solitude, grief, and the ecology of attention. Marris considers what it means to live through an era defined by environmental loss and human disconnection, yet still filled with wonder. She shares stories of tardigrades that endure extreme conditions, how airports reveal our attitudes toward birds, and the personal loss of her father that awakened her to “noticing absence.” Together, they explore how ecological loneliness might transform into longing for reconnection—not only among humans, but with the creatures and landscapes that share our world. Marris suggests that paying attention, naming, and noticing are acts of restoration. “Loneliness,” she writes, “is the symptom that desires its cure.”Episode Highlights“Loneliness is the symptom that desires its cure.”“There are ways, even very simple ones, that individuals can do to make the landscape around them more hospitable.”“I don't believe that humans are hardwired to exploit. There have been many societies with long traditions of mutual benefit and coexistence.”“It's really hard to notice an absence sometimes. There's something curative about noticing absences that have been around but not acknowledged.”“Ecological concerns are not a luxury. It's actually really important to hold the line on them.”Helpful Links and ResourcesThe Age of Loneliness by Laura Marris — https://www.graywolfpress.org/books/age-lonelinessUnderland by Robert Macfarlane — https://wwnorton.com/books/9780393242140E.O. Wilson on “Beware the Age of Loneliness” — https://www.economist.com/news/2013/11/18/beware-the-age-of-lonelinessAbout Laura MarrisLaura Marris is a writer and translator whose work spans poetry, essays, and literary translation. She is the author of The Age of Loneliness and has translated Albert Camus's The Plague for Vintage Classics. She teaches creative writing and translation at the University at Buffalo.Show NotesThe Ecology of Loneliness and LongingLaura Marris discusses The Age of Loneliness—“Eremocene”—a term coined by E.O. Wilson to describe a speculative future of environmental isolation.Fascination with poetic form and environmental prose emerging during the pandemic.Ecological loneliness arises from biodiversity loss, but also offers the chance to reimagine more hospitable human landscapes.Extreme Tolerance and the Human ConditionMarris describes tardigrades as metaphors for endurance without thriving—organisms that survive extremes by pausing metabolism.“How extremely tolerant are humans, and what are our ways of trying to be more tolerant to extreme conditions?”Air conditioning becomes an emblem of “extreme tolerance,” mirroring human adaptation to a destabilized environment.Birds, Airports, and the Language of BlameMarris explores how modern air travel enforces ecological loneliness by eradicating other species from its space.She reveals hidden networks of wildlife managers and the Smithsonian's Feather Identification Lab.Reflects on the “Miracle on the Hudson,” where language wrongly cast geese as antagonists—“as if the birds wanted to hit the plane.”Loneliness, Solitude, and Longing“Loneliness is solitude attached to longing that feels painful.”Marris distinguishes solitude's generativity from loneliness's ache, suggesting longing can be a moral compass toward reconnection.Personal stories of her father's bird lists intertwine grief and ecological noticing.Ground Truthing and Community ScienceMarris introduces “ground truthing”—people verifying ecological data firsthand.She celebrates local volunteers counting birds, horseshoe crabs, and plants as acts of hope.“Community care applies to human and more-than-human communities alike.”Toxic Landscapes and Ecological AftermathMarris recounts Buffalo's industrial scars and ongoing restoration along the Niagara River.“Toxins don't stop at the edge of the landfill—they keep going.”She reflects on beauty, resilience, and the return of eagles to post-industrial lands.Attention and Wonder as Advocacy“A lot of advocacy stems from paying local attention.”Small, attentive acts—like watching sparrows dust bathe—are forms of resistance against despair.Cure, Absence, and Continuing the ConversationMarris resists the idea of a final “cure” for loneliness.“Cure could be something ongoing, a process, a change in your life.”Her annual bird counts become a continuing dialogue with her late father.Wisdom for the Lonely“Take the time to notice what it is you're lonely for.”She calls for transforming loneliness into longing for a more hospitable, interdependent world.Production NotesThis podcast featured Laura MarrisInterview by Macie BridgeEdited and Produced by Evan RosaProduction Assistance by Alexa Rollow, Emily Brookfield, and Hope ChunA Production of the Yale Center for Faith & Culture at Yale Divinity School https://faith.yale.edu/aboutSupport For the Life of the World podcast by giving to the Yale Center for Faith & Culture: https://faith.yale.edu/give

In this week's film show, Manon Kerjean and Dheepthika Laurent look at Nadia Melliti's performance as an Arab woman struggling with her sexual identity in "La Petite Dernière", a film for which she won best actress at the Cannes Film Festival. We also look at François Ozon's daring, bold adaptation of Albert Camus' masterpiece "L'Étranger" and discuss the technical prowess of "L'Homme qui rétrécit", a film starring Oscar-winning actor Jean Dujardin. Finally, we check out Isabelle Huppert's new film, "La femme la plus riche du monde", a biopic loosely inspired by L'Oréal heiress Liliane Bettencourt.

Never trust anyone who tries to be ethically pure. This is the message of Albert Camus's short novel La Chute (The Fall), in which a retired French lawyer tells a stranger in a bar in Amsterdam about a series of incidents that led to a profound personal crisis. The self-described ‘judge-penitent' had once thought himself to be morally irreproachable, but an encounter with a woman on a bridge and a mysterious laugh left him tormented by a sense of hypocrisy. In this episode, Jonathan and James follow Camus's slippery hero as he tries and fails to undergo a moral revolution, and look at the ways in which the novel's lightness of style allows for twisted inversions of conventional morality. They also consider the similarities between Camus's novels and those of Simone de Beauvoir, and his fractious relationship with Jean-Paul Sartre.

Nommé ministre de la Justice en 1981, suite à l'arrivée de la gauche au pouvoir, Robert Badinter a su conjuguer ses convictions politiques à son approche humaniste. Écoutez ses plaidoyers contre la peine de mort, pour la captation audiovisuelle des procès historiques et pour la dépénalisation de l'homosexualité : les combats d'un avocat exemplaire.    Robert Badinter est entré dans l'Histoire le 9 octobre 1981 pour avoir obtenu l'abolition de la peine capitale, promesse de campagne de François Mitterrand. Pour le Garde des Sceaux, c'est l'aboutissement d'une longue lutte portée par de grandes figures intellectuelles telles que Victor Hugo, Alphonse de la Martine, Flora Tristan ou encore Albert Camus. Rappelons également l'engagement sans faille de Robert Badinter pour la dépénalisation de l'homosexualité en France et dans le monde. Robert Badinter a défendu la loi Forni, rapportée par la députée Gisèle Halimi. Le texte promulgué le 4 août 1982 abrogeait définitivement le «délit d'homosexualité». Sans oublier la loi autorisant les captations filmées des procès historiques promulguées le 11 juillet 1985. Un texte novateur permettant la constitution de sources audiovisuelles, pour les historiens et le travail de mémoire. Je tiens à remercier chaleureusement toutes celles et ceux qui ont largement contribué à la réalisation de ce documentaire inédit. Toute l'équipe des rendez-vous de l'Histoire de Blois et plus particulièrement Caroline Gomes, responsable des archives et des podcasts Badinter.   À écouter :  Justice et histoire, Robert Badinter Robert Badinter, alors sénateur, avocat et ancien ministre de la Justice, traite des rapports complexes qu'entretiennent magistrats et historiens, en revenant sur le procès de Robert Faurisson ou bien sur les lois mémorielles. Conférence de clôture de l'édition 2010 des Rendez-vous de l'Histoire sur le thème «Faire Justice».  La dépénalisation de l'homosexualité En 2010, lors des Rendez-vous de l'histoire sur «La Justice», Robert Badinter, Louis-Georges Tin et Philippe Castetbon, sous la modération de Florence Tamagne, ont échangé au sujet de la dépénalisation de l'homosexualité. Ensemble, ils dressent un état des lieux du sujet en France, près de 30 ans après la suppression du «délit d'homosexualité» et 3 ans avant l'adoption du mariage pour tous, ainsi que l'ouverture de l'adoption aux couples homosexuels. Ils en appellent également à une mobilisation internationale pour obtenir la dépénalisation universelle de l'homosexualité. Remerciements également à notre partenaire le magazine Historia, dont le numéro d'Octobre consacre un article au maître Badinter, Historia que vous retrouverez également aux rendez-vous de l'Histoire de Blois à partir du 9 octobre 2025, jour de l'entrée au Panthéon de Robert Badinter ! Robert Badinter est mort à l'âge de 95 ans, dans la nuit du 8 au 9 février. En 2001, il revenait pour Historia sur son combat pour la peine de mort dans un long entretien.   «Robert Badinter au Panthéon», un évènement national à suivre sur les antennes de RFI le jeudi 9 octobre à partir de 17h10 TU.

En La Mesa de Filósofos el tema fue Albert Camus, un autor que nació en 1913, pero que se mantiene muy actual. De hecho, en la pandemia, una de sus obras más conocidas, “La peste”, fue best seller mundial. Camus nos habla de lo absurdo y es muy interesante analizar sus planteos sobre la vida, la violencia, la esperanza, entre otros.

Gefühlt muss heute alles Sinn machen: Yoga für die Selfcare, Reisen für die Horizonterweiterung, sogar Schlaf wird zum Biohacking. Aber manchmal nervt genau dieser permanente Sinn-Overload. In dieser Folge frage ich mich, ob wir nicht mehr Unsinn brauchen. Vom TikTok-Trend “German Brainrot” über dadaistische Lautgedichte bis hin zu Albert Camus: Kann das Sinnlose nicht manchmal das Sinnvollste sein?

Simone Weil écrit "Les besoins de l'âme" en 1943, dans le cadre de ce que pourrait être, après la guerre, une nouvelle Déclaration des Droits de l'homme. Albert Camus, qui publiera ce texte après la mort de Simone Weil, déclara que son livre était l'un des plus élevés et des plus beaux qu'on ait écrits sur notre civilisation. Et il ajoutera que Simone Weil fut le seul grand esprit de son temps.➔ Regardez la version vidéo de cet épisode : https://youtu.be/A_oRA5DHCyw➔ Rejoignez-moi sur Patreon : https://www.patreon.com/ParoledephilosopheMembre du Label Tout Savoir.

Nous sommes le 10 mai 1953, à Saint-Etienne, à 60 km, au sud-ouest de Lyon. Dans une allocution qu'il prononce à la bourse du travail, le futur prix Nobel de littérature, auteur de « La Peste » ou de « L'Etranger, Albert Camus déclare : « Si quelqu'un vous retire votre pain, il supprime en même temps votre liberté. Mais si quelqu'un vous ravit votre liberté, soyez tranquille, votre pain est menacé, car il ne dépend plus de vous et de votre lutte, mais du bon plaisir d'un maître. La misère croît à mesure que la liberté recule dans le monde et inversement. » Gage de stabilité politique au cours des siècles, la pain, lorsqu'il vient à manquer, devient le combustible des révolutions. Un peu moins de deux siècles plus tôt, en 1770, dans ses « Dialogues sur le commerce des blés », l'abbé Galiani, économiste italien, écrit : « Le blé peut être regardé comme une production du sol, et sous cette vue, il appartient au commerce et à la législation économique. Ensuite, il peut et doit être, en même temps, regardé comme la matière de première nécessité et le premier soin de l'ordre civil des sociétés, et sous ce point de vue, il appartient à la politique et à la raison d'Etat ».

„Der Fremde“ von Albert Camus gilt als schwer verfilmbar. Regisseur François Ozon hat es trotzdem gewagt und sein Werk auf dem Filmfest Venedig vorgestellt. Seine Lesart des Romans ist teils radikal, aber respektvoll und folgerichtig. Wellinski, Patrick www.deutschlandfunkkultur.de, Lesart

El programa comienza con la escritora, poeta y periodista peruana Gabriela Wiener, que llega acompañada de Maielis González para hablar de Sudakasa. Este espacio se configura como una residencia artística destinada a mujeres migrantes, un lugar donde desarrollar proyectos que muchas veces no encuentran cabida en los grandes circuitos ni en las instituciones culturales. De esta experiencia surge el libro 'Siembra: Relatos de vidas Migra', publicado por Sudakasa Ediciones, que recoge historias nacidas a partir de esa convivencia y creación compartida.En la sección literaria, la actualidad pasa por Arturo Pérez-Reverte, que ha presentado 'Misión en París', la octava entrega de la saga de 'El capitán Alatriste', iniciada en 1996 y convertida en una de las series de novela histórica más populares en lengua española.El cine centra otra parte del programa con la Mostra de Venecia. Allí François Ozon estrena 'El extranjero', adaptación cinematográfica de la novela de Albert Camus, que compite por el León de Oro.

The story so far: The boys are trapped in an underground movie store run by an anthropomorphic moleman. After a year of insane adventures, they start questioning where they might truly be...Magic mole scrolls and random scrawlings litter the place down here, so we dig through in the hopes of figuring out what Moleman might be hiding. But then the existential dread hits us...and what if we're actually in the afterlife? Like Lost? No...probably more like Jacob's Ladder (1990)! So we pop it in the VCR and ruminate on our lives by discussing our chiropractor experiences, Greg's history with My Girl, our favorite Albert Camus books, and An Occurrence At Owl Creek Bridge! Get comfy, pop some headphones in, and come get sad with us! If you dig us, why not check out our other podcast Greg's Cryptid Corner?

Albert Camus. „Svetimas“. Vertė Laima Rapšytė, išleido leidykla „baltos lankos“.Tai knyga apie neįveikiamą individo vienatvę inertiško abejingumo, absurdo akivaizdoje. Prancūzų rašytojo karta brendo dviejų pasaulinių karų kanonados, atominės bombos apokalipsės ir Holokausto košmaro laiku. Kamiu savo kūryba išreiškė naujosios epochos dvasią ir galią, o jo jaunatviškas entuziazmas, neabejotinas intelektualinis autoritetas ir meninis principingumas pradėjo ligi šiol tebesitęsiančią draugystę su skaitytojais. Romano ištraukas skaito aktorius Vladas Bagdonas.

This lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th century philosopher, novelist, and essayist Albert Camus' four Letters To A German Friend (anthologized in Resistance, Rebellion, and Death: Essays) Specifically it examines the fourth and final letter, which looks at the importance of attending to the demands of justice but also human happiness when considering what one owes to one's country, and whether it is worth fighting or not To support my ongoing work, go to my Patreon site - www.patreon.com/sadler If you'd like to make a direct contribution, you can do so here - www.paypal.me/ReasonIO - or at BuyMeACoffee - www.buymeacoffee.com/A4quYdWoM You can find over 3,500 philosophy videos in my main YouTube channel - www.youtube.com/user/gbisadler Purchase Resistance, Rebellion, and Death: Essays - https://amzn.to/415sfTf

This lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th century philosopher, novelist, and essayist Albert Camus' four Letters To A German Friend (anthologized in Resistance, Rebellion, and Death: Essays) Specifically it examines the third letter, which elaborates the theme of the meaning of Europe, a matter where fascists and nationalists like the Nazis view matters one way and other Europeans view matters differently. The Nazis view Europe as something to possess and dominate, a system of resources to exploit. Camus advocates viewing Europe much as he views France, as something valuable, to which one can belong, and which has to be held to standards of justice and truth.

This lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th century philosopher, novelist, and essayist Albert Camus' four Letters To A German Friend (anthologized in Resistance, Rebellion, and Death: Essays) Specifically it examines the second letter, which builds upon and expands themes from the first letter, specifically holding one's country to standards. This is connected with a refusal to subordinate or suppress intelligence in favor of a misguided patriotism.

This lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th century philosopher, novelist, and essayist Albert Camus' four Letters To A German Friend (anthologized in Resistance, Rebellion, and Death: Essays) Specifically it examines the first letter, which elaborates the theme of love for one's country. He makes a distinction between two different conceptions of love for one's country, one which subordinates all other values and realities to one's country (as the Nazis do), and one that holds one's country to higher standards (as the French do), which seems to put them at a disadvantage.

How to write about the kaleidoscopic Sixties in the gloom of 2025? According to James Grady, author of the classic Six Days of the Condor and the new mid-century novel American Sky, the key is calibrating nostalgia with unflinching honesty about the past's complexities. "You can't just write about the past and not have a focus also on current times and really the future," Grady explains. The novelist's approach involves fictionalizing personal experiences while ensuring memories of traumatic events like the JFK or MLK assassinations connect with the painful realities of MAGA America. Rather than romanticizing the Sixties, Grady emphasizes the civil rights violence, the generational divide, and the "silent majority's" anxieties alongside the era's optimism. Grady's goal isn't to escape into nostalgia but to help readers understand how past dreams and failures shaped our present moment, making history a lens for understanding America's current challenges.1. Historical Fiction Must Connect Past to Present "You can't just write about the past and not have a focus also on current times and really the future. Otherwise it's like you're looking back at an old photograph of a horse and buggy. It's lovely, but it doesn't really speak to you."2. The Danger of Elite Liberal Condescension "Starting in about 1975 and 1976, I saw a new kind of, quote, liberal or left-winger come into the power circles of Washington, D.C. They were elite-educated, Ivy League, and they did their best to ignore any working class roots that they had. They started to look down on the labor unions."3. Fiction Can Reveal Truth Better Than Facts "So we can change the facts, but the facts are not necessarily necessary to reveal the truths... this is not a memoir where you have to be factual. This is fiction. And yet there's an echo of all of us."4. True Rebellion Requires Positive Vision "I always think of the great French philosopher Albert Camus who said a true rebel says yes to something better instead of just saying no and rejecting and fighting. You've got to have something to fight for."5. Literature Should Focus on Ordinary Americans "I think that a good author has to write about us, and you, almost more than they write about me... I want to know what's going on with someone in, you know, there's a town called Beaver Crossing, Nebraska, or, you know, Sonoma, California... Where real people are leading their lives and we learn from each other."Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

Here is a fantastic episode by one of the world's leading Camus scholars, Dr. Simon Lea. The entire paper will be available in The Journal of Camus Studies. Below is the abstract of the paper:Albert Camus planned his works in cycles. Each were to contain an essay, a novel and plays. The first cycle wasconcerned with the absurd and the second with rebellion. Camus' life was tragically cut short in a motor accident before he could complete the third cycle. Between the second and third cycles, after the furore resulting from his publication of The Rebel, Camus wrote several texts that are not includedin his cyclical works. This paper is concerned with Camus' first cycle on the absurd and the following texts: The Myth of Sisyphus, The Stranger, Caligula and The Misunderstanding. In particular, I am interested in the role played by revelation in the communication of the absurd in these works. In this paper, I use the term 'revelation' in reference tomaking known something relating to the human condition via a process that is difficult or even impossible to understand. My argument is that Camus, drawing upon Nietzschean influences, is seeking in his first cycle to induce revelatoryexperiences in his readers in order to communicate ideas concerning the absurd.Please check out The Albert Camus Society.

Today we talk about Camus' book The Fall and what the main character represents in his larger project. We also talk about someone Camus deeply admired, Franz Kafka, and how to think of the images he created in his work. We talk about the experience of the modern individual in relation to politics. We also talk about what Camus and Kafka disagreed on. Hope you love it. :) Sponsor: Better Help: https://www.BetterHelp.com/PHILTHIS Thank you so much for listening!

Today we talk about the concept of exile from the work of Camus. We focus on a couple stories from his book Exile and The Kingdom. We talk about why Camus insists that true lucidity can only arise from the jarring lived experience he calls “exile,” not from armchair reflection. We talk about Janine's desert epiphany in “The Adulterous Woman.” We talk about school‑teacher Daru in “The Guest,” trapped between France and Algeria, whose double exile shows how history can choose for us. We talk about the everyday escape hatches—nostalgia, comfort contracts, curated news bubbles—that let people dodge exile until reality blindsides them.

Today we talk about Camus' concept of rebellion and how it offers a powerful alternative to abstract ideologies. We talk about solidarity as the foundation for justice without systems. We talk about the death penalty as a symbol of premeditated murder disguised as virtue. We talk about rebellion as something closer to art than politics—an act rooted in experience, defined by limits, and carried out with sincerity.

Today we talk about the book The Stranger by Albert Camus. We talk about why Camus saw himself as an artist and not a philosopher. We talk about happiness. The absurd and it's full implications. The Mediterranean lifestyle. The sun as a symbol of immanence. Revolt against the absurd as a descriptive claim-- not a normative one.
