Abstract
In this paper, guilt and its causes are examined from a psychological perspective. The author describes guilt as primarily an emotion experienced by people who believe they have done something wrong. The paper further states that "wrong" can vary considerably based on an individual's beliefs, values and culture. Sigmund Freud's views on guilt are explored in relation to his psychological theory. The author also examines the theme of guilt as it is presented in literature. A number of Albert Camus' works, most notably "The Stranger" and "The Fall" are used as examples.

From the Paper
"Individuals involved with human behavior have long hypothesized why the emotion of guilt evolved along with humankind. The reasons range from biological and protection to psychological and a coping mechanism. Guilt is primarily an emotion experienced by people who believe they have done something wrong. However, the definition of "wrong" can very considerably based on an individual's beliefs, values and culture."
