YouTube Description
as posted by the channelLife is meaningless, but how do we cope? That is the question asked by Albert Camus in his landmark text The Myth of Sisyphus. Here I will draw upon this work amongst others Camus penned like The Stranger to give an overview of how Camus thinks we should live in a world where everything seems meaningless, and the universe will not hear our calls for a higher purpose. I will also focus on some of his more radical ideas as they are often glossed over or made more palatable by many popular interpretations of his words. Think of this as a slightly more provocative version of my genuine interpretation of the great thinker's ideas.
