Albert Camus developed the philosophy of absurdism, which refers to the conflict between the human desire to find meaning and value in life and the inability to do so. In Camus' novel The Stranger, the main character Meursault exemplifies absurdism through his detached relationship with his mother's death and indifference to social norms. Meursault represents the absurd man described by Camus as one who recognizes life's absurdity but continues living and finding happiness in the present moment despite that realization.

Samuel Beckett's 'Waiting for Godot' belongs to the tradition of the Theatre of Absurd. It is unconventional in not depicting any dramatic conflicts. In the play, practically nothing happens, no development is to be found, there is no beginning and no end.
Brave New World by Aldous Huxley presents a controlling, over-processed, anti-social world which creates a faulty version of perfection when trying to obtain it.
Beckett is believed to have said that the name Godot comes from the French "godillot" meaning a military boot. Beckett fought in the war and so spending long periods of time waiting for messages to arrive would have been commonplace for him. The more common interpretation that it might mean "God" is almost certainly wrong. Beckett apparently stated that if he had meant "God," he would have written "God". Godot: it is relatively common name in French

1. “Camus” theory of absurd
Presentation by : Khalid Karim
Roll no : 1017
2. Who is the founder of Absurdism?
• A particular form of Existentialism, it was
strongly evident in some of the works of
Søren Kierkegaard, but was more
expressly developed by Albert Camus in
his essay The Myth of Sisyphus and his
works of Absurdist fiction repudiating
many assumptions found in atheistic
nihilism and theistic existentialism as well
as ...
3. What is absurd according to
Camus?
• In philosophy, "the Absurd" refers to the
conflict between the human tendency to
seek inherent value and meaning in life
and the human inability to find any. In this
context absurd does not mean "logically
impossible", but rather "humanly
impossible".
4. What is Absurdism in stranger?
• In 'The Stranger' by Albert Camus,
Camus includes his philosophy of the
absurd through the main character
Meursault. The main theme of the novel is
that the significance of human life is only
understood at the point of death. ... The
first example of absurdism is Meursault's
relationship with his mother.
5. How is Meursault absurd?
• Meursault is an absurd hero both on a
figurative and on a literal level. ... On a
literal level, Meursault perfectly
exemplifies the absurd characteristics of
revolt, freedom, and passion outlined by
Camus in The Myth of Sisyphus.
6. What is an absurd hero by camus?
• As a metaphor for the human condition
and the absurdity of our experience,
Sisyphus is the epitome of the absurd
hero because he is able to recognize
the absurdity of the human condition,
abandon hope, find happiness in material
reality, and ultimately find meaning in the
struggle itself.
7. Is life absurd?
• The absurdity of human life poses a
challenge to its meaning. Absurdity and
meaningfulness don't go together. This,
however, does not mean that if life were
not absurd then it would have meaning.
Removing the obstacle of absurdity does
not entail that meaning rushes in.
