| Albert Camus - MSN Encarta (1118 words) |
 | Albert Camus (1913-1960), French-Algerian novelist, essayist, dramatist, and journalist, a Nobel laureate whose concepts of the absurd and of human revolt address and suggest solutions to the problem of meaninglessness in modern human life. |
| The young Albert Camus inherited and accepted the challenge of the negativism and gloom that followed upon two world wars. |
| In his life and work he resisted despair and calls to replace a lost belief in God with some abstraction or ideology that might be used to justify crimes similar to those he had witnessed. |
