Camus, Philosophe: To Return to our Beginnings is the first book on
Camus to read Camus in light of, and critical dialogue with,
subsequent French and European philosophy. It argues that, while
not an academic philosopher, Albert Camus was a philosophe in more
profound senses looking back to classical precedents, and the
engaged French lumieres of the 18th century. Aiming his essays and
literary writings at the wider reading public, Camus' criticism of
the forms of 'political theology' enshrined in fascist and
Stalinist regimes singles him out markedly from more recent
theological and messianic turns in French thought. His defense of
classical thought, turning around the notions of natural beauty, a
limit, and mesure makes him a singularly relevant figure given
today's continuing debates about climate change, as well as the way
forward for the post-Marxian Left.
