Freedom, Passion, and Resistance: On the Intention of the 'Absurd Man' in Sisyphus Myth

摘要

Sisyphus Myth is the most important of Albert Camus's three early representative works on absurdity, which embodies his existentialism and absurd philosophy. This book takes "absurd man" as its core, mainly with the help of the elucidation of the meaning of the image of "Sisyphus", through the analysis of a series of problems such as suicide, freedom and hope, gives a new connotation of "absurdity", and considers its significance to human life and the living situation that human beings are facing generally. The literary level of image description has been upgraded to the philosophical level of logical speculation and has provided a unique spiritual guide for human beings to face absurd problems. Through this work, the author re-examines the value and significance of our life from a new angle and way of thinking. The Sisyphean Myth redefines the principles that we regard as truth. It is the meaning and belief of our life to penetrate the absurd nature of the world while maintaining the spirit of resistance.
