#Barbie the #Existentialist
by Santiago Ramos
"Another existentialist, Martin #Heidegger, said that human beings spend most of their lives in a default state of 'average everydayness,' going from one unthinking task to the next. ... As Albert #Camus put it, 'At any street corner the feeling of absurdity can strike any [Barbie or Ken] in the face.' When that happens, Barbie learns the main truth of her existence: she is 'being-toward-death.'"

His supposed inappropriate responses, his tendency to go with the flow, his ambivalence. Critics like to speak of Camus' focus on "the absurd", but if you've ever felt like The Stranger, you know the randomness of life and the judgemental nature of humankind are very real.

Albert #Camus reckons that "as a creator, #Melville is, for example, at the furthest possible remove from #Kafka". A newly discovered manuscript casts some doubt on this thesis.

What's a useful essay to assign students on #Sartre's critique of #Camus' position on colonialism/Algeria? I've only been able to dig up his review of The Stranger.

Political Philosophy: I'm intrigued by John #Rawls, #Marx, and Betrand #Russell.
Personal Philosophy: #Aristotle's focus on habituation and its relationship to one's own character have been life changing for me. "Fake it until you make it" is the essence of my life.

On #Camus’ 109th #birthday an article I wrote about “The Outsider”:
“Through the obstinate life of its narrator Meursault, the novel displays the inarticulateness between an individual consciousness and the world, an impediment between an emerging self and the hypocritical, conspiring society which surrounds it. “
