Albert Camus, writing in the shadow of two world wars and deeply involved in the French Resistance, possessed a unique understanding of fear's pervasive influence. Witnessing firsthand the horrors of Nazi occupation and the chilling specter of totalitarianism, Camus grappled with the anxieties of a world seemingly devoid of inherent meaning. His philosophical exploration of the absurd, born from this context of profound uncertainty and imminent danger, directly confronts the fear of meaninglessness, the fear of death, and the fear of societal collapse that haunted his generation. His work provides a framework for understanding and confronting these primal anxieties.
