'Accepting the absurdity of everything around
us is one step, a necessary experience: it
should not become a dead end. It arouses a revolt that can become fruitful.'
should not become a dead end. It arouses a revolt that can become fruitful.'
Albert Camus
In philosophy, 'The Absurd' refers to the conflict between
the constant human tendency to seek inherent meaning in
life and the human inability to find any.
In this context absurd does not mean 'logically impossible', but rather 'humanly impossible'.
'Absurdism', therefore, is a philosophical school of thought stating that the efforts of humanity to find meaning will ultimately fail, because
no such meaning exists.
