Myth of Sisyphus

The Myth of Sisyphus is one of the masterpieces of Camus, a literary master of the Absurd Philosophy of France, and is the most thorough and concentrated study of Camus' Absurd Philosophy, as well as the most thorough and clear interpretation.Sisyphus, a Greek mythological figure who takes the rock on the mountain and suffers from hardships endlessly, is the most vivid symbol of the absurdity of human existence. However, at the same time, he is a great man who is not desperate, not decadent, to fight in the absurd and fight against the absurd fate.Therefore, The Myth of Sisyphus is a tragic self portrayal of human condition, rather than a song of triumph for free humanitarianism, which constitutes a kind of sorrowful and sublime style. In the field of human culture and art, perhaps only Beethoven's Fate Symphony can be comparable to that in grade.
