The Myth of Sisyphus is a philosophical essay by Albert Camus, published in 1942. In it, Camus explores the philosophy of the absurd, questioning the meaning of life in a universe without inherent meaning. Through the mythological figure of Sisyphus, condemned to eternally repeat the task of pushing a rock to the top of a mountain only to see it fall again, Camus reflects on the human condition and the search for meaning in an absurd world. This essay is a fundamental work for understanding Camus's thought and his vision of existentialism.
