SEGAL, Élodie. The Stranger: Albert Camus vs. Kamel Daoud. For a Libertarian Post-Existentialism. Hist. graf [online]. 2019, n.53, pp.53-78.  Epub 10-Dic-2019. ISSN 1405-0927.

The Stranger by Camus is one of the most widely read books in the world. This essay tackles Camus philosophy of the absurd in his philosophical tale, along with libertarian spirit that Daoud’s counter inquiry tends to defend, nearly half a century later, in The Meursault Investigation. Indeed the Algerian author offers a retelling of The Stranger in order to confront the absurd figured by Camus with those real harsh conditions of living that his own people had to endure, at least concerning its minorities. We are the absurd! This is the thesis the author wishes to defend. This dialogue between Daoud and Camus argues the issue of a potential process of independence and liberty from a libertarian and post-existentialist perspective.

Palabras llave : philosophy; existentialism; absurd; minorities.
