In this first of three videos devoted to Albert Camus' essay "The Myth of Sisyphus," we examine Camus' early Existentialist philosophy of the absurd. We start with his guiding question: suicide -- yes or no? -- and delve into what he means by the absurd in order to arrive at an answer. We elaborate the different occasions or occurrences of absurdity experienced by human beings -- and work out Camus' triad of absurdity: human being, world, and the discordance between them
