Overview

«No hay sino un problema filosófico realmente serio: el suicidio.»

El mito de Sísifo es el ensayo fundacional de la filosofía del absurdo, una obra mayúscula que dio a conocer el gran talento de Albert Camus. Publicada en 1942, el mismo año que El extranjero, fue una de las primeras obras que revelaron al público la inteligencia y la sensibilidad del autor.

El título del ensayo hace referencia a un personaje de la mitología griega que enfadó a los dioses por su extraordinaria astucia y fue condenado a empujar perpetuamente una piedra enorme montaña arriba. Al llegar a la cima, la piedra volvía a caer hasta el valle, desde donde Sísifo debía volver a empujarla hasta la cumbre, y así eternamente. Por medio de esta alegoría, Camus discute la cuestión del suicidio y el valor de la vida, presentando a Sísifo como imagen del esfuerzo inútil e incesante del hombre. De este modo plantea la filosofía del absurdo, según la cual nuestras vidas son insignificantes y no tienen más valor que el de lo que creamos. Siendo el mundo tan fútil, pregunta Camus, ¿qué alternativa hay al suicidio?

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

One of the most influential works of this century, The Myth of Sisyphus—featured here in a stand-alone edition—is a crucial exposition of existentialist thought. Influenced by works such as Don Juan and the novels of Kafka, these essays begin with a meditation on suicide—the question of living or not living in a universe devoid of order or meaning. With lyric eloquence, Albert Camus brilliantly posits a way out of despair, reaffirming the value of personal existence, and the possibility of life lived with dignity and authenticity.
