Adopting an interdisciplinary approach that encompasses philosophy,
literature, politics, and history, John Foley examines the full
breadth of Camus' ideas to provide a rigorous guide to his
political and philosophical thought, making a significant
contribution to current debates in Camus research. Foley argues
that Camus' thought can best be understood through analysis of the
concepts of "the absurd" and "revolt" and the relationship between
them. The book includes a detailed discussion of Camus' writings
for the newspaper Combat, a systematic analysis of the 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 commonly
neglected work, L'Homme revolte (The Rebel). Written with
sufficient detail and clarity to satisfy both academic and student
audiences, Albert Camus: From the Absurd to Revolt is an important
discussion and defence of Camus' philosophical thought.
