The Rebel

by Oliver Todd, Albert Camus, Anthony Bower
$11.90
The Rebel - Thryft
The Rebel - Thryft

Philosophical inquiry into rebellion and revolt's essence.

"The Rebel" could truly speak to you if you find yourself captivated by the intersections of history, philosophy, and human action. Albert Camus masterfully ponders over the role of rebellion throughout the ages, dissecting it as a force for potential good against oppressive systems. It's more than a historical account; it's a deep, existential consideration of our desire to resist and transform the world, framed by a mind that's both poetic and critical. If you're into works that challenge your perspective, this will resonate with you.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

'To say that life is absurd, one must be alive' The Rebel is Camus' 'attempt to understand the time I live in' and a brilliant exploration of what it means to resist. His fiery, passionate criticism of Communism and the French Revolution for their use of terror attracted violent opposition from his contemporaries, who held them sacred. In this towering and humane work, Camus argues that hope for the future lies in revolt without revolution; rooted in wisdom beauty and individual freedom.
