Topic: Camus language

	Roland Barthes
		The writer's language is not expected to represent reality, but to signify it.
		Barthes looked at the historical conditions of literary language and posed the difficulty of a modern practice of writing: committed to language the writer is at once caught up in particular discursive orders.
		In fact, I speak only in the name of language: I speak because I have written; writing is represented by its contrary, by speech...

	little blue light - Albert Camus
		Camus was later mentored by his lycée philosophy professor, Jean Grenier, who exposed Camus to the writers that would become seminal influences, such as Plato, Pascal, Kierkegaard, and Nietzsche.
		Camus was very active in sports, especially soccer, which he credited with forming his sense of morality and duty to man. His involvement with sports abruptly ended when he contracted tuberculosis in 1930 at the age of seventeen.
		Camus had begun working on an autobiographical novel about his youth in Algeria, The First Man, when he was killed in an automobile accident in 1960 while riding as a passenger in a car driven by Michel Gallimard, a relative of his publisher.

	ASHLEY LATTAL'S PAPER: ALBERT CAMUS
		Although Camus would later look back with pride on his working-class family and the virtues that he saw in their lives, it can not be denied that he suffered from a loneliness that came from his poverty, his father's death, and his mother's backwardness.
		Camus was struck with tuberculosis in 1930, at the age of seventeen.
		Camus too came to greatly admire the work of Gide, especially his ability to weigh moral values in his works, for Camus would come to be perceived as a moralist, a moralist in an age of war and nihilism.

		For Camus, the moral of the story warns the reader to be careful when choosing his words as each has potential power to control lives.

	Reason, Faith and the Language-Game - by Benjamin M. Sandin
		Philosophers such as David Hume and Albert Camus address the problem of evil in their writings and use it as grounds for refuting the rationalist view that God necessarily exists metaphysically, either ontologically or cosmologically.
		Camus doesn't spend much, if any, time trying to establish that evil is present in the world.
		This picture of language asserts that the meaning of words and phrases are determined by the context, or game, in which it plays a role.

	Camus, Albert. The Columbia Encyclopedia, Sixth Edition. 2001-05
		Camus was one of the most important authors and thinkers of the 20th cent.
		His belief that man’s condition is absurd identified him with the existentialists (see existentialism), but he denied allegiance to that group; his works express rather a courageous humanism.
		Camus was awarded the 1957 Nobel Prize in Literature.

	Camus talk
		However metaphysically absurd religion may have appeared to Camus in the wake of God’s death, he could not as a student of human nature deny that faith seemed to leave a residue of ethical concern and seriousness even after its ontological armature had been eaten away by modernity and rejected by philosophy.
		On each of these matters Camus was obliged, with a mixture of surprise and regret, to concede that dissension existed within the community of the elect and, more seriously, that a shared history of resistance provided no firm principles on the basis of which to settle these disputes.
		Thus, Camus argues, the peasant who has hoarded riches unjustly taken from others in the wartime fl market must be returned to virtuous poverty by having his ill-gotten wealth confiscated through the issuance of new currency.

	The Stranger, Constant Reader Discussion
		Albert Camus was born in 1913 in Algeria.
		Camus on the one hand and the existentialists on the other held the belief that a person is not per se anything--that is, a person is not born anything.
		Camus had been in the habit, throughout his life, of reworking everything he wrote, and his daughter, Catherine Camus, observes in her introduction that he probably would have "masked his own feelings far more" in a completed version of the book.

	Time and Ethics in Albert Camus's The Plague (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Camus responded to Barthes's evaluation of The Plague's anti-historicism and ethos of political quietism in an open letter of 11 January 1955.
		Camus does not come right out and say in his notebooks that he wants his readers to identify with the fighters against plague, but the notion of fighting against something that seeks to injure us is a condition with which most of us can presumably empathize.
		Camus is able to suggest that the most compelling moral voices are sensitive to historical pressures and linguistic indeterminacy by structuring The Plague in such a way that those characters who maintain an absolute standard for moral behaviour succumb to the disease.

		Camus shifts the reader’s reaction to Meursault from negative to neutral.

	Literary Criticism (Site not responding. Last check: )
		It would seem that with Camus the modern era already is seriously grappling with an emergent post modernity, at an edge where understanding turns upon itself only to explode into a series of transformational and generative misunderstandings.
		When Camus complains of misunderstandings with regard to The Plague, as in his letter to Roland Barthes, this particular irony escapes the master of irony, as also probably most of his critics.
		On one plane, it is Camus, the man who is directly affected by the bitter polemics in the public sphere.

	A Consideration of Camus's "The First Man" as a Postcolonial Work -Carol Elliott
		Specifically, Camus supported the establishment of a federation government in Algeria which would represent all people equally, a proposal that directly opposed the call of the liberals in France to grant Arabs their independence outright which would result in the ouster of French Algerians (vi).
		Using his mother as an example, Camus lifts the idea of alienation from being an internal state to an external one; her separateness is observable and does not require interpretation.
		Camus uses these kinds of gestures to show that while the individual is solitary in existence, he or she is also united with others by the very fact that everyone shares this same circumstance.

	Politics and Culture (Site not responding. Last check: )
		For a student of Roland Barthes like Camus, who is an enthusiastic proponent of "bathmology," Barthes's science of levels (or "degrees") of discourse, there is a great difference.
		Those quotations marks are not, of course, literally in Camus's text and could not, therefore, be seen by those whose only knowledge of his writing came from extracts in the press.
		Camus was astonished shortly after the appearance of La Campagne de France to receive "right-on"'s from a number of politically ultra-conservative anti-Semites, he tells me. Were those anti-Semites good readers?

	Camus and Sartre: The Story of a Friendship and the Quarrel that Ended It
		Camus hesitated at first, but when Sartre pressed the point he agreed." They held a few rehearsals in Beauvoir's hotel room for what was to be a low-budget touring production.
		Camus gave no indication of knowing that the novelist was also a philosopher who had already published a book on the imagination in 1936 and a long article entitled "The Transcendence of the Ego" the following year.
		Camus went on to praise Sartre's descriptions of absurdity, the sense of anguish that arises as the ordinary structures imposed on existence collapse in Antoine Roquentin's life, and his resulting nausea.

		Sure, Camus inserts a lot of angst-ridden, "life's a tale told by an idiot, signifying nothing," passages, but it's clear by the context that he is parodying himself and his "compatriotes." This is an intentional shaggy-dog story.
		Camus has touched on general topics that we mostly experience and agree on, but none that are special to be worth reading.
		Camus himself denied that he was an existentialist although he is guaranteed to be in almost any anthology of existintialist philosophy or literature.

	JS Online: Roeming made history compiling Camus research
		He was a University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee language professor with then-unusual computer skills, and he chose to begin cataloging material on Albert Camus, after the French philosopher and writer died in a 1960 crash.
		Roeming, a professor of French and Italian, chose Camus because his death meant a stopping point for the Nobel Prize winner's writing and a starting point for the boom in the critical Camus studies that were sure to follow.
		Using his extensive Camus contacts - and greatly assisted by the Internet - he was still adding about 500 items a year to the bibliography by the late 1990s.

		It has taught us that language is tautological, if it is not nonsense, and to the extent that it is about anything it is about itself.
		A further characteristic of the two novels under discussion here that allows for comparison is that both artists employ a style that does not so much reveal meaning as a fixed and determinate set of propositions, but instead, by suggestion and omission demands that the reader participate in the act of making meaning.
		Underneath the surface meaning of the ruling icons of his culture (law, religion, conventional morality) Meursault is finally able to experience a subjective and intense "meaning" in the form of a separate peace brought about by this surrender to the benign indifference of the world.

	It’s Only Language - Dick Cavett - Opinion - New York Times Blog
		It is only reasonable to expect the language of any area to change when that area has a high influx of immigrates, even if they share the same language.
		There seems to be little doubt that the invention of the printing press tended to freeze all languages, compared to their former rapid rate of change (e.g, Chaucer to Shakespeare: in 300 years the former was all but unintelligible to the latter, whom we still read easily 400 years later).
		Some of us fight the language battle in secondary and higher education and behind the scenes in TV or radio studios, but our efforts are stymied by the onslaught of the untaught, the unaware and the uninterested.

	Ibn Warraq on How to Debate a Muslim
		The Koran is putatively (in fact it is very difficult to decide exactly what the language of the Koran is) written in what we call Classical Arabic (CA), but modern Arab populations, leaving aside the problem of illiteracy in Arab countries [2], do not speak, read, or write, let alone think in Classical Arabic (CA).
		Finally, the language of the Koran is some form of Classical Arabic [13] which is totally different from the spoken Arabic of today, so even Muslim Arabs have to rely on translations to understand their holy text.
		Of course, there are all sorts of difficulties with the language of the Koran, but these difficulties have been recognized by Muslim scholars themselves.
