Скачать или смотреть How to Rebel Against Life’s Absurdity - Albert Camus

In this video, we do an in-depth analysis of Albert Camus' philosophical masterpiece *The Myth of Sisyphus*, to better appreciate his profound ruminations on the question of the meaning of life, absurdity, and human existence. Most famously, Camus posed what has become known as the ultimate question, pondering whether life does or does not have to be lived. For him, therefore, the human condition is essentially defined by its absurdity since there is, in fact, a conflict between the desire of people for meaning and the world that seems to be utterly indifferent.

Drawing upon the myth of Sisyphus, the Greek figure condemned to roll a boulder up an incline for all eternity, Camus brings out the cyclic quality of human existence as we search for meaning. Though not in despair, for Camus it is in rebellion against such absurdity— by living and fully committing to the effort, finding happiness in the very struggle itself.

Here we explore how we can face the inevitable absurdity of existence without surrendering to nihilism or despair. Learn why Camus sees Sisyphus not as a figure to pity, but as a hero who triumphs in his defiance against fate. Through this lens, we can gain a new understanding of how to live authentically, without succumbing to comforting delusions or empty beliefs.
