《西西弗神话》介绍
《西西弗神话》法国作者加缪的哲学论著，是其“荒诞哲学“思想的集中体现。在加缪的全部文学作品和哲学随笔当中，“荒诞”是他强调的最重要的一个概念。加缪认为，荒诞诞生于“人类的呼唤与世界非理性的沉默之间的对峙”。
在这本书中，他分析和探问了许多哲学家的思想，比如雅斯贝尔斯、克尔凯郭尔、胡塞尔、海德格尔、舍斯托夫，也对陀思妥耶夫斯基等人的文学巨著加以评述，目的都是为了阐发他的“荒诞”概念，并进而指出：“活着，就是经历荒诞。而经历荒诞，首先就是直视它。”他指引我们像西西弗一样认识自己的命运，反抗自己的命运，义无反顾地生活。

Introduction to the Myth of Sisyphus
The Myth of Sisyphus, a philosophical treatise written by Camus, is the concentrated embodiment of his "absurd philosophy". In all his literary works and philosophical essays, "absurdity" is the most important concept that Camus emphasizes. According to Camus, absurdity is born out of "the confrontation between the call of man and the irrational silence of the world."
In this book, he analyzed and probed the thoughts of many philosophers, such as Jaspers, Kierkegaard, Husserl, Heidegger, Shestov, and also commented on the literary masterpieces of Dostoevsky, with the aim of elucidating his concept of "absurdity" and further pointing out: "To live is to experience absurdity." The first thing to experience absurdity is to look at it." He guides us, like Sisyphus, to know our destiny, to rebel against it, to live without looking back.
