    WRITER
    ALBERT CAMUS

    (November 7, 1913-Villeblevin, January 4, 1960) was an Algerian-born French novelist, essayist, playwright,
    philosopher and journalist. His conceptions were formed under the influence of Schopenhauer, Nietzsche, and
    German existentialism.
    The formation of philosophical thought known as absurdity has been attributed to him, although in his text "The
    enigma" Camus himself denies the label of "prophet of the absurd." It has been frequently associated with
    existentialism, although Camus always considered himself alien to it.Despite his conscious departure from
    nihilism, he rescues from him the idea of individual freedom.
    He was part of the French Resistance during the German occupation, and was associated with the postwar
    libertarian movements. In 1957, he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature for "a set of work that highlights
    the problems that arise in the consciousness of men today."
    Analysis of The Stranger

    The novel The Stranger tells the story of an emotionally distant amoral young man
    named Meursault. He doesn't cry at his mother's funeral, doesn't believe in God,
    and kills a man he barely knows for no discernible reason. For his crime,
    Meursault is considered a threat to society and sentenced to death. When he
    comes to accept the world's gentle indifference, he finds peace with himself and
    with the society that pursues him.
    Camus's absurd philosophy implies that moral orders have no rational or natural
    basis. However, Camus did not approach the world with moral indifference, and
    he believed that the lack of a higher meaning in life would not necessarily drive
    him to despair. On the contrary, Camus was a persistent humanist. He stands out
    for his faith in the dignity of man in the face of what he saw as a cold and
    indifferent universe.
