Outsider czy zwierzę? Rozważania nad „zwierzęcością” Meursaulta – bohatera Obcego Alberta Camusa
Journal Title: Amor Fati - Year 2015, Vol 1, Issue 3
Abstract
The purpose of this paper is an attempt to answer the question: how the interpretation of the main hero of "The Stranger"’s Albert Camus as “an animal in human skin” can be applied to understanding the actions of the hero in the world and whether Camus describes Meursault as an animal in fact, and not just symbolically. The author argues that such extreme treatment of “the animality” of a hero is useless in the broader context of this book and Meursault has human nature – the complexity of his psyche confirms this.
