camus

Well this is not very far from what Camus effectively landed on, the acceptance of the absurd.

Like the other poster suggested, Camus did not encourage suicide but used the concept of suicide to judge a philosopher's honesty.

I have the kindle reader on my iphone, and was looking for some Camus to read on it.

- Albert Camus Half the money I spend on advertising is wasted, and the trouble is, I don't know which half.

And Camus said that the one truly interesting philosophical problem is suicide.

You can easily charge $125 per her C2C in the valley with all big data drama: kafka, camus, java, etc.

For example, religion, as Camus delivers, is a type of philosophical suicide.

I strongly suspect that others pondering the Camus question of suicide are similarly alone or asocial.

If they want to render this information ineffective, instead of playing whack-a-mole with takedowns they should start making Albert Camus required reading in high school.

Unfortunately, the only books available to kindle having anything to do with Camus are books and essays about Camus, not actual Camus books (you cannot, for example, purchase The Stranger for your kindle).

There's a lot that's simplified and removed from your statement, but I think you would find a lot more to agree with in Camus than you might expect.

Fahrenheit 451 - Ray Bradbury L'Etranger - Albert Camus Frankenstein - Mary Shelley Metamorphosis - Ovid Oryx and Crake - Margaret Atwood The Picadilly Papers - Charles Dickens Permutation City - Greg Egan Fiction allows us to experience the most intimate thoughts of people we've never met in a way we cannot emulate in reality.

The willingness to die for your ideas is the main subject of Camus's philosophical writeup "The Myth of Sisyphus".

Albert Camus wrote in "Le mythe de Sysiphe": > Il n'y a qu'un problème philosophique vraiment sérieux: c'est le suicide.

Yes, Camus does not defend suicide, and advocates instead living life to the fullest, whether or not there is any "meaning" to it.

While I think I understand how your example works and how it's useful, I think I need to read more to understand what “existential types” are, since I’m pretty sure you’re not talking about dudes like Camus.

Camus attempts to explain this in his essay The Rebel.

Camus' The Plague has already been mentioned in this thread.

:-) If Camus' work is not a triumph of philosophy, it certainly has few rivals in style.
