Sulic, Dijana. "Deux visages du mal : Hermann Melville et Albert Camus." Paris 4, 1996. http://www.theses.fr/1995PA040174.
Full textThis study proposes to demonstrate, in light of the theme of evil, a correspondence between Herman Melville and Albert Camus. Both were obsessed by the problem of evil, and each found a way of expressing that obsession. In spite of their many differences, the comparison between the two is not only possible, but invited by the many parallels in their life and work. This entails a comparative analysis on several levels: formal, literary and philosophical. There follows a comparison of selected works from the authors respective oeuvres. The theme of evil is shown to be present in the early works (Typee, Omoo, Mardi, Redburn, White jacket, L'Envers et l'endroit, and Noces). An analysis of evil in Moby Dick and La Peste is the main focus of the study. The subject is then examined as it is manifested in the characters of Achab and Caligula, and pursued in the correspondences between Bartelby, L'Étranger and Billy Budd. The final section is devoted to the confidence man and la chute, followed by a conclusion asserting the omnipresence of evil in both authors' work
Larue, Rémi. ""Ni victimes ni bourreaux" : morale et politique de la violence chez Albert Camus." Thesis, Paris, EHESS, 2019. http://www.theses.fr/2019EHES0074.
Full textIn a context of revolutions, wars and other forms of violence, Camus and many of his contemporaries started to reflect on the issue of violence because they were concerned about reflecting on an era particularly marked by its concrete consequences worldwide. This PhD dissertation shows to what extent the way Camus addresses this philosophical problem is thoroughly representative of his time while being quite original. Its originality lies in the way Camus built his approach and tried to depict violence in its full diversity. In Camus’s approach, not only is violence diverse because he mentions different forms of violence – children’s fights, the cruel reality of war and revolution, suicides and murders – but also because he depicts a wide range of perpetrators of violence. This diversity made it possible to try to identify and analyse the specificities of what makes a moral and political approach to violence which emerged during World War Two and which was based on the writer’s experience as a member of the Resistance. Focusing on the diversity of violence has also enabled to dismiss other ways of approaching the issue of violence such as thinking about the sources of violence by attempting to explain them or investigating on the innate violent dimension in human beings. The lines of approach chosen by Camus and the stands he took are also what makes his conception of violence original. Because Camus was solicitous about focusing on the consequences of violence on human beings and not so much solicitous about comprehending its essence, his stances could be summed up by the expression “Ni victimes ni bourreaux” which has been defined as Camus’s guideline in his reflection on violence. Throughout his life, Camus was committed to ensuring some continuity in his stances and reflections on violence while he opted for different means of expression and different literary genres. Using the image of the spiral of political violence, this dissertation attempts at providing an in-depth analysis of the elements constitutive of Camus’s approach consisting in limiting violence rather than trying to eradicate it. This perspective has enabled to bring to the fore Camus’s will to favour dialogue as a limit to violent acts. It has also revealed the idea that the decolonisation in Algeria – a real wrench in Camus’s works and intellectual journey – put Camus’s approach to the test of reality. The perspective chosen in this dissertation is that of intellectual history, building bridges between history, literature, philosophy and political science. Camus was convinced that his personal experience should be the main source of inspiration for his creation. Thus, his literary and intellectual works have been valued as much as the context in which they were written: the texts studied have always been read in the light of the historical context and intellectual debates in which they were set

Full text339571\u Albert Camus (1913-1960) a produit une œuvre considérable, réfléchissant sur les problèmes de son temps par la voie du journalisme, de l’essai, de la littérature, du théâtre ou de conférences. Bien que toutes ces activités soient connues, le rapport intrinsèque entre les écrits journalistiques et l’œuvre philosophico-littéraire demeure circonscrit à l’examen de quelques thèmes ou d’extraits spécifiques. Or, depuis la parution de la plupart des textes journalistiques de Camus (1938-1956) dans les Œuvres complètes (La Pléiade, 2006-2008), il est possible de questionner les propos tenus par le journaliste, en fonction de l’originalité de leur contenu, mais aussi dans leur rapport à plusieurs de ses autres écrits. C’est ce thème du lien possible entre les articles de journaux et les essais et textes littéraires qui fait l’objet de la présente thèse. Le lien dont il est ici question s’appuie sur une lecture des articles et éditoriaux qui dévoile la structuration d’une pensée qui, partant des faits sur lesquels Albert Camus prenait position, se mettait peu à peu au diapason d’une exigence morale qui s’est non seulement maintenue au cours de ces années, mais qui s’est amplifiée jusqu’à constituer une éthique de la responsabilité. De plus, cette éthique s’est manifestée dans les prises de position philosophiques et littéraires en plusieurs occasions, ce qui permet de questionner l’influence du journalisme sur le processus créatif de Camus. Toutefois, prétendre à cette démonstration exige d’abord de vérifier en quoi Camus était un intellectuel engagé dans la défense de valeurs spécifiques. Il importe de le faire puisque Camus lui-même a, le plus souvent, désavoué tout rapport à l’engagement ou encore à l’humanisme, du moins dans le sens généralement admis de ces notions au cours de la première moitié du vingtième siècle. L’objectif de cette thèse est donc de faire valoir la nature d’un engagement intellectuel réel chez Camus, fondé sur un souci humaniste qui a donné lieu à la création d’une éthique de la responsabilité, par le biais d’une confrontation aux difficultés de la vie humaine et ce, par l’exercice du journalisme. Une éthique si prégnante qu’elle a aussi guidé le travail de philosophe et de romancier, permettant à Camus de donner du relief aux thèmes, aux histoires, ainsi qu’aux types de personnages qui ont donné lieu à plusieurs de ses livres majeurs.

Full textThe following thesis studies the forms that the recurrent theme of misunderstandingtakes in the writings of Albert Camus. This omnipresence could be explained first bythe author’s life, especially his childhood trauma: a comparative study of twoautobiographical works shows the painful misunderstanding with the mother. But themisunderstanding is also located on the political and moral levels, as the writer’sambiguous positions on the Algerian question started up violent controversies withintellectuals although Camus has always denounced the injustice whose victims werethe aboriginal. The reception of his writings has not escaped this difficulty. Camuswas "poorly understood" by critics, both in France and Algeria, so he sets up animposing paratext to avoid "bad" reading. Thus, all the author’s experiences of(misunderstanding with the mother, with intellectuals, with critics ...) feed up hiswritings - which will be marked by misunderstanding between the characters - with atear in their relationship caused by a difference at the level of thought, culture, race

Full textSaintliness, it said, the authenticity to be and to act, the propensity to do good, is practised by Camus across his works and in the life of the "commited man". Thus in "l'étranger" (the foreigner), it is marked by "neutral write", writing, rather confined to an accuracy that is visible to a certain justice. In "La Peste" (the Plague), saintliness is characterised by "objective", "impartial style", producing an effect of truth, authenticity and of saintliness. Write in the practical life of Camus, saintliness seems to have his origins in the childhood of Camus notably to leave his practical journalistic objective, his inflexible denunciation of injustice and violence of any sort. Given that Camus considered writing as an account of a lived experience, as it happens to be his, it seems in the last analysis, that saintliness of Camus renders reason to a just way to live in the world

The tree styles complete each other in spite of stylistic divergences and the apparent conflict between testimony and distance : journalistic writings are engaged but sometimes neglect objectivity, whereas tellings and theater plays present an idealistic reality which makes up for Camus' disillusions with History. The confrontation of the three styles ends up in a certain unity which lies on the will to testify, even through silences and the distance Camus keeps from the world and from himself

Consequently, we have studied the Arabic translations of the Plague adopting an interpretive approach that integrates both the linguistic and the extra-linguistic parameters. Of the work. In this manner, the novel’s context as well as the creative work of the author permet us to restore the original work with all its linguistic, stylistic and cultural dimensions

Full textIn his desire to thwart the absurd of life, Camus constantly looked for the road to freedom in the beautiful and indifferent nature and in the silence. These two entities were bequeathed to him; the silence by its circle of acquaintances and the nature was simply there at his life's reach. To facilitate this link between man, nature and silence, Camus will constantly appeal to a style stemming, first of all, of this silence. Indeed, this silence shaped the camusien style by giving it conciseness, precision and intensity. The camusien style is also lyric and poetic; Camus uses with abundance the figures of stylistics and poetics accentuating intra-factorial and inter-factorial transfers based on personifications, metaphors, correspondences, alliterations and so on. These images are capable of allowing man to become mineral and nature human, thus these images will contribute in creating a communion between man and nature. This will lead man to enjoy life and accept death at the same time

Full textCamus poses the problem of evil and death at the same time as the problem of salvation right from the time of his first works. His redeeming heroes are skin to the "mythical heroes" and particularly to the saviour of the gospels. His first man, meursault, re-treads the path of adam : from innocence to the fall, from eden to exile, from life to death. After this the heroes explore different paths successively, with a view to the redemption of their fellow man as well as their own. Galigula is an anti-christ who only adds to the unhappiness of man. In his fall, jan, a false redeemer, pulls down those whom he had come to save. The sacrifice of the just redeems nothing, since the salvation of man cannot be attained by hatred, violence and murder. On the other hand, tarrou and diego by sacrifieing their lives, bring to mind the figure of the redeemer of the gospels. Camus' heroes offer their lives to save their brothers. They triumph over death by making it fruitful, redeeming, victorious. Only clamence, who aspires to be delivered not from illness, oppression or death, but from his faults, awaits salvation in vain
Chatzipetrou, Sofia. "Conscience tragique grecque et conscience humaniste chez Albert Camus." Thesis, Paris 3, 2013. http://www.theses.fr/2013PA030144.
Full textThis thesis examines Albert Camus’ work, both fictional and dramatic, in its reception of conscience’s primary concepts as introduced by the Greek tragedy. The point is to find out how these concepts are received, transformed and finally incorporated in Camus’ literary and philosophic world.Conscience meaning the knowledge that everyone has of himself (thumós), it aims at a knowledge supposed to be shared with the others. Around the desire of existence therefore, feelings of unity and coherence, autonomy and heteronomy set up. Between introspection on one hand and opening to the world on the other, the conscience figures as a key theme for both tragic and camusian reflection. At the heart of enduring oppositions, the person must transform Destiny’s and Absurd’s blow into a productive range: thus, Requisition and Rebellion trace the way to go in order to be and remain human. From tragic « self » affirmation to the « human vocation » required by the author, conscience and identity interact and indicate the individual as the creator of meaning. Through Greek tragedy’s essential principles, Camus aims thereby at an identity which, aware of its contradictions, its rights and duties, remains consistent: the rebel’s identity

Full textWhereas Nikos Kazantzaki, a greek author, was born in Crete in 1883, albert camus, a french author, came into the world in Algeria in 1913. Although they grew on opposite shores, both belong to the mediterranean world. Is this common heritage sufficient to establish a hiriship between them ? From childhood to manhood, from instinctive life to the shaping of a certain type of relationship to the world, also taking into account their ethical and philosophical choices, it is the mediterranean itinerary of Albert Camus and Nikos Kazantzaki that we have attempted to follow, in order to determine how they related to their terra mater, their homeland. Were they faithful to the last to that mare nostrum on the shores of which they were born ? Inheritors or prodigal sons, where did their ulyssean voyage eventually lead them, across an affective, moral and intellectual mediterranean sea ? And, since it is at the origin of their personal history, did the mediterranean remain at the heart of their reflection as men and writers, a living source that never dried up ?

The third and major section of this thesis compares camus with eastern men of letters, highlighting both the direct and indirect influence he has on them

Full textOnes does not take often measurement of it, Albert Camus is at the same time a work and a control. In the construction of the identity of the writer-polygraph, the scene of the periodical was a matric experiment. Far from being reduced to the double paradigm absurdity and revolt, one sees stinging the figure of a writing intellectual, anchored in the battle of the ideas of his time, and whose specular game applies one “to act by saying it.” Our study, constructed in three phases, initially tries to determine the auctorial models which nourish its civic commitment like its hobby horses in the middle of the XX ème century in crisis. Secondly tries to clarify the modulations, the enunciative strategies by which structure the poetic one of a writing of combat closely related to the urgencies of the context, and in constant adjustment with the generic constraints; is profiled who makes in filigree of it, the way in which the writer-journalist manages the constitutive tension with any committed journalistic speech: to inform with objectivity/impossibility of saying without coming out. Lastly, the analysis attempts to examine by which scenography auctorial the journalist-rhetor, whose word, in catch on an audience at the same time located and virtual, applies a rhetoric effectiveness, finds its way in the discursive polyphony of the cotexte. By rediscovering a canonical author beyond the constrained framework of the “literary and intellectual field” of the “black years”, one measures not only what the writer owes to the journalist, but especially in what its experiment of the periodical concentrates all work under the feather, and clarifies at the same time the heterodox and singular posture of one of the last heirs to the “time of the prophets”

Full textReverse to the "roman à thèse", the constituents of which such as the events or characters may be held as a pretext to pass on a message, Camus novels seem to be resulting from a work matured in the long term on the "form" on which the elaborating process of the "sense" lies. In this work, we aim at tracing how such a creating process winds round an underlying unity which may be characterized under three themes - repetition, border line and vacuum - in order to penetrate the aesthetics of the "absurd" and the ethics of the "revolt". To this end, we first intend to assess the way in which those two notions of "absurd and revolt" were embodied in the three mythical characters Sisyphe, Don Giovanni and Prometheus as described in Camus essays : le Mythe de Sisyphe, L'Homme révolté. Thereafter we must question on the narrative structures in the novels - L'Etranger, La Peste et la Chute - to follow up the scriptural dynamics of Camus to the nearest point. Under such approach, we do believe to hear the echo of the "uncanny" a concept elaborated by Freud who, while inquiring the meaning of the feeling of anxiety raises a question which is ours : the main springs of artistic creation

Full textAlbert Camus and Jules Roy, two friends, both pondered on their identities as barbarian writers, as both were born in Algeria and exiled to France. Influenced by a dual heritage of hellenism and mediterranean christianism, they became humanists, but doubting humanists. Each of them endeavoured to answer the question + who am I? ; either in works where fiction mingles with confessions, or in autobiographies. Their personal antitotalitarian commitment during the political and military conflicts of the twentieth century led them to use the autobiography in a somewhat implicit way, that can be read both as a collective testimony and as an individual will. With Albert Camus gone, an echo of his incompleted life's tale can be heard in the autobiography of Jules Roy, who always professed to be the disciple of Albert Camus
Marashi, Ardian. "Les vérités d'Albert Camus." Rennes 2, 2002. http://www.theses.fr/2002REN20066.
Full textThe very important thing for Camus was the research of verity, so well as the verity became the unifying principale of his both life and work, the center where everything turned around. The verities of Albert Camus reveal, in fact, what is substantive in the life of this autor, what is consistent in his thought and what is relevant in his art. This thread of verities permits just to keep at the center of camusian phenomenon and to redefine his work as well as his personality in the function of this essential criterion. This thesis consists in fifteen chapters, regrouped in five sections : original, metaphysical, hisorical, mythical and artistic verities : the analysis concerns the integral Camus's work : essays, fictions, theatre, in order to give an account as equitable as possible on the manner he uses to think, to write and to play. The subtle management of the polysemy of antic, biblical or original myths and parabolas, like Sisyphus, Prometheus, the Stranger, the Plague, the Fall, results in verities situated within the limits of contradiction : The Plague, for instance, is the example on how a realistic chronicle becomes a masterpiece of fiction and how the myth, encrusted in the everyday routine, reproduces and almost replaces the reality in its very depths and diversities dimensions. Before all, Camus was an artist of the language and our first preoccupation was to elucidate by which methods and especially by which techniques and proceedings of style him becomes the writer of reference that we know

Full textThis thesis proposes a reading of Camus’ creation from the democratic and antitotalitarian perspective in order to demonstrate the innovative aspect of his thought, which is more actual than ever. One hundred years after the birth of the writer, Nobel Prize for literature, his work opens up new lines of thought halfway between philosophy, science, politics and literature. After a general introduction to the concepts of totalitarianism and democracy, we will proceed to the more specifically study of the author. We sketch a portrait of Camus as a committed journalist in the battles of his time and we will discuss a comparative analysis between Camus and intellectuals and thinkers who influenced his democratic thought and inspired his thinking on totalitarianism. Then, we will focus the analysis on certain works : journalistic (Actuelles I, II, III ) and philosophical essays (The Rebel), fictional works, such as The Plague, and three plays Caligula, The Just Assassins and The State of siege. Based on this selection of works, we will examine the technique adopted by Camus to transfer into the fictional the democratic debate against the totalitarianism of his era. Finally, we will study from a lexicological point of view the terms of totalitarianism and democracy, and all their synonyms within the semantic field of anti-totalitarian debate

Full textOur thesis devoted to the study of imaginary mouvements of ascension and of fall from a dialectic standpoint between the man, the world and god in the works of albert camus. As the author, who believed that he was born in total accordance with nature, is conscious of the irreversible time, the sentiment of fall and the nostalgia of the paradise lost put in motion in his imagination. The author's imagination is therefore characterized by a constant going and returning between ascension and fall. Through out the three parts of our thesis, we study this going and returning between the imaginary mouvement of ascension and that of fall : the first part is devoted to the analysis of each of the two principal imaginary mouvements of albert camus whose images regroup with two moving constellations of which one tends towards the high and the other tends towards the low, the second part to the dynamism of ascension and of fall that proceeds from a spatiotemporal plane in the five narratives works of camus, "la mort heureuse", "l'etranger", "la chute", "jonas ou l'artiste au travail" and "la femme adultere", and the third part to the research of the imaginary mouvements of ascension and of fall on the basis of the biblical images just as camus read it

Full textThe object of this study is the sensory space of la mort heureuse, l'etranger, la peste and noces through a textual analysis. The above texts are examined as systems of signs where articulations and functions are reconstructed through a narratological and semiotic approach of the sensory space. From this point of view the sensory space presents two dimensions of complementery nature. On the one hand is the sensory space described, that is the "utterance" by which the story is narrated. On the other hand it includes the space of the discourse, the spatial form of the text: the places itineraries depicted are always accessible through the senses as vehicles of perception. At the same time the instance of the representation creates the figures of sensory space: description, metaphor, metonymy. The sensory space is developed not only as a composit of the written space but it is also inscribed within the text

Full textHuman dignity represents a key concept in albert camus's thought. It is a notion that constitutes a kind of basic moral reference for the author allowing him to strengthen his commitments and his humanist ideas and to back up his literary works revealing a quest for a better world in which the specific demands of human dignity would encourage more individual rights. Camus observes both sides of this world and attempts to find a middle ground, a balance that would allow every individual to find his path and give meaning to his life. Camus was a man passionately in love with life and this passion stemmed from a fundamental taste for happiness; from this love came his revolt against all things that keep a person from leading a fulfilling life - suffering, illness, death - and against all things that degenerate a society - nihilism, totalitarianism.

Maglione, Erminio. "Albert Camus et la réception de Nietzsche en France de 1877 à 1960." Thesis, Tours, 2019. http://www.theses.fr/2019TOUR2020.
Full textThe present work aims to investigate the reception of Nietzsche in France from 1877 to 1960 starting from the first translation of the german philosopher until the death of one of his most original interpreters, Albert Camus (1913-1960). The considered period is the one that prepares the advent of the "Nietzsche Renaissance" of the 1960s and that will contribute to focus attention on the anti-dialectic Nietzsche. Concerning the methodological level, the analysis will be based on the approaches of the history of ideas, of the philosophy of culture and of the history of philosophy, focusing on what appeared to be the dominating guidelines of french interpretation of Nietzsche. The structure of the subject is outlined in three main historical and cultural sections. The first one investigates Nietzsche's relations with french modernity (Descartes, Pascal, Montaigne) in order to show the great influence that the latter had on the first and how this proximity was the basis of his fruitful reception. The second section traces the main stages of Nietzsche's reception from 1877 to 1960. The third one focuses on the reading of Camus and its elements of originality. Two appendices close the work: an italian translation of a juvenile text by Camus, the Essai sur la musique (testimony of his early Nietzschean readings), and a chronological list of the german thinker's translations from 1877 to 1960

Full textThe murder of an Arab by Meursault, the hero of "the stranger" is at the centre of the novel. We will study it from three different angles: sociological, tragic and aesthetic. Condemned because he didn't weep on the day of his mother's funeral, he confesses to the murder, being under the influence of the sun. Our work trys to bring out the inner identity of the author as well as his search for the absolute. His quest for salvation which will release him from his metaphysical anguish, leads us to believe that the crime did indeed take place for aesthetic reasons. Unreconciled with the sun, he discovers liberty and happiness in prison, at nightfall

Full textThe forces of plot galvanize every work of literature, such that we examined them at work in two landmark stories of the 20th century: The Old Man and the Sea and L'Étranger. Ernest Hemingway and Albert Camus use plot to confront the abyss of human existence, opposing death with protagonists who clash against insurmountable forces yet transcend their inevitable fates through exceptional personal heroism. Each artist writes the plot of his own life, in constant struggle against the death, disorder and darkness that he encountered. Each novelist illuminates the obscurity of an inexplicable universe through a “plot of ideas,” which renders existence more meaningful. Moreover, they evolve “the plot of the history of art,” for each story represents artistic progress insofar as it revolts against previous ideas and perceptions so as to both innovate and renew humanity and connection to its sacred values. Hence in living to write the L'Étranger and The Old Man and the Sea, Hemingway and Camus resolve man´s unending encounter with “the abyss” through the essential, continuous practice of poetic play and the unremitting renaissance of artistic creation

Full textThis thesis deals with the occurrence of the religious texts in the works of Albert Camus. The point is to find out the different aspects of intertextuality embodied in the novels and the philosophical essays of the author. The thesis is organized around two axis. The first one has to do with the biblical intertext that is found in the texts of Camus. In fact, this process is done by the direct borrowing from the religious register. The second axis deals with the occurrence of the religious intertext linked to some previous and contemporary authors-philosophers : Saint Augustin, Pascal, Kierkegaard, Dostoïevski, Nietzsche or Heidegger. As a matter of fact, the intertextuality appears in the works of Camus in an explicit way or an implicit one. The thesis focuses, at each step, on the intertextual techniques that are used by Camus, on the role played by the intertext in the analysis of the camusian text, on the effect of the intertext on the reader and who is aware of the perception of the work. To conclude, this work shows the systematic implication of Camus’s masterpieces in a progressive intertextual process. It starts by the use of a simple form of commentary to a most complex form of intertextuality which becomes the framework of Albert Camus’s works

Full textThe term commitment, which knows a remarkable success in intellectual circle, comes into effect in the days following the Second World War. Since then, men of letters and scientists have been reveling with delight in being members of a privileged circle of intellectuals. During the whole length of crossing sinuous ways which lead to the intellectual commitment lasts, each clerk exposes his strategy and his manner to deal with the problem. There are numerous ways to tackle the issue, our study is consequently focused on two types: Camus and Sartre's commitment. Within the different flux of after war, Camus and Sartre, at the same time writers, journalists, essayists, men of theatre and action, acting in the political world, arouse a justifiable curiosity. The political itinerary of each of the two clerks, their strength and also their weakness help us to better locate the status, the role and the intellectual's duty in a society where politics has on important place. During his whole life, Camus has fought as a convinced man of the left for the reign of justice and freedom, the only values for which deserve, in his eyes, one can fight and die. Soon after Second World War Sartre becomes after his arrest and his internment, << the figurehead of the intellectual commitment >> in France and the exemplary militant of the commited literature. In spite of differences and a controversy which has made a great noise, Camus and Sartre remain << the main and the complementary witnesses >> in their time. These two enemy brothers have left an indelible mark each in his own way. A long time after their death, it would seem that it was the artistic circle which took up the torch; actors, singers and film makers, whose awareness on the whole looked heightened of current crucial problems such as the fight against racism, cancer, aids and famine in the world, act as the new spokesmen for the nation and the heralds of peace and social harmony. They try each in their turn to cure the pains of a << society of spectacle >> their own way, which has become according to Guy Debord's expression, the society of <>

Full textThe issue of subject and spatiality in Sartre and Camus' novels leads us to question their theoretical and practical relationships. Is there a significant relationship between the subject and space as focal or structural points in their literary texts? From our analysis, it arises that our corpus abounds in important potentialities of subject and space, and that these concepts are interactive structures producing meanings, which imply the philosophy of the authors. But then, each writer has a different vision of the perception of the subject in space. For Albert Camus, the subject sometimes develops space, sometimes is overwhelmed by its determinations. With Sartre, on the other hand, the subject, led by a will for freedom, uses space to deal with its consciousness. Space thus plays an undeniable part in the construction of the human conscience. Sartre and Camus appear as two writers with divergent visions. Their respective theories, the existentialism for the first and the absurdity for the second, are based on the relationships between space and subject

Full textThis present study has for object to light up the nature and purpose of Camus's justice. The question's examination has shown the necessity to realize that first the Camus's spiritual itinerary that goes absurd to commitment to revolting. For author the existence is absurd because that put on human consciousness and world. This confrontation is the cause of metaphysical injustice. Facing the last, the human being rise up and want to justice differently this world's unite. He protests against authority's god and men. But wanting to get to absolute, this protestation become a murder and change the human being into headsman. For avoid this tyranny, Camus invites to "throught of midday". The "throught of midday" is the throught that don't just at this end, not to search for the absolute and ideal. She likes to think measured, moderate, and relative. All this determining gives back his just act because the justice is the acceptance and gratefulness of the modesty and boundary of the human conditions. There is not justice, there is only boundary
