A study of Camus' political and philosophical thought and a significant contribution to a range of debates in Camus research. It argues that the coherence of Camus' thought can be understood through an understanding of the concepts of 'the absurd' and 'revolt' as well as the relation between them.
Adopting an interdisciplinary approach, encompassing philosophy, literature, politics and history, John Foley examines the full breadth of Camus'' ideas to provide a comprehensive and rigorous study of his political and philosophical thought and a significant contribution to a range of debates current in Camus research. Foley argues that the coherence of Camus'' thought can best be understood through a thorough understanding of the concepts of ''the absurd'' and ''revolt'' as well as the relation between them. This book includes a detailed discussion of Camus'' writings for the newspaper "Combat", a systematic analysis of Camus'' discussion of the moral legitimacy of political violence and terrorism, a reassessment of the prevailing postcolonial critique of Camus'' humanism, and a sustained analysis of Camus'' most important and frequently neglected work, "L''Homme revolte" (The Rebel).
