"We should not replace absurdity with meaning, but build meaning on and into absurdity"

In this episode, I host Dr Giovanni Gaetani. Giovanni holds a PhD in Philosophy on the philosophy of Albert Camus. We talk about Camus’ works The Stranger, and the Myth of Sisyphus and others, and we analyze their central themes, such as death, suicide, absurdity, and rebellion. We discuss how Camus suggested we deal with the meaninglessness of life and we expand on what Camus meant with phrases such as “There is but one serious philosophical problem, and that is suicide”, and “I rebel, therefore, we exist”.
