Exploring Freedom and Existence in Camus' "The Stranger" and Frankl's Philosophy

This review delves into the intricate themes of freedom and existence as presented in Albert Camus' "The Stranger" and Viktor Frankl's philosophical assertions. Frankl posits that true freedom lies not in an escape from conditions, but in the choice to respond to them. We explore the connection to Sisyphus' struggle and Sartre's definition of freedom as it reflects on Meursault's character and his inevitable fate. This analysis will cover crucial quotes, philosophical theories, and the rich existential themes woven into the narrative, providing insight into human resilience and choice.
