Opis

Argues that the coherence of Camus' thought can best be understood through a thorough understanding of the concepts of 'the absurd' and 'revolt' as well as the relation between them. This book includes a discussion of Camus' writings for the newspaper Combat, and a reassessment of the prevailing postcolonial critique of Camus' humanism.
