1,400 words (approx. 5.6 pages) | 2 sources | 2002 United States


Paper Summary:

This paper will interrogate the arguments of Camus, with respect to the question of absurdity, in light of the criticism of Thomas Nagel. It will be argued that - for all its flaws and fundamental pessimism - Camus' understanding of absurdity allows us the capacity for meaningful human action; a quality denied by the ironic approach of Nagel.
