Sinopsis

Adopting an interdisciplinary approach, encompassing philosophy, literature, politics and history, John Foley examines the full breadth of Camus? ideas to provide a comprehensive and rigorous study of his political and philosophical thought and a significant contribution to a range of debates current in Camus research. Foley 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 detailed discussion of Camus? writings for the newspaper 'Combat', a systematic analysis of Camus? discussion of the moral legitimacy of political violence and terrorism, a reassessment of the prevailing postcolonial critique of Camus? humanism, and a sustained analysis of Camus? most important and frequently neglected work, 'L?Homme revolte' (The Rebel).
