L'homme révolté
Book • 1951
In 'L'homme révolté', Albert Camus delves into the nature of rebellion and its manifestations across different domains.
The book is divided into five main sections, examining the spirit, development, and expression of revolt through the works of various philosophers and historical figures.
Camus distinguishes between 'révolte'—a positive refusal—and 'révolutions' that lose their initial rebellious spirit and descend into nihilism, sacrificing reality for ideology and rationalizing murder.
The essay discusses how rebellion can be both a legitimate expression of freedom and a force that can turn against itself, highlighting the tension between the desire for change and the dangers of absolute faith in revolutionary causes.
