Question
3) Camus seems to feel that we humans are basically in the same situation as Sisyphus.
Explain as clearly as you can what Camus means by this comparison. Do you agree or
disagree with Camus in drawing this comparison? Why or why not? Support your
view by argument.
Answer
Camus believes that humans are in a similar situation to Sisyphus, in that we are all doomed to a life of futility and meaninglessness. He believes that no matter how hard we try, our efforts will ultimately be in vain and we will never find true satisfaction. I disagree with Camus in this comparison, as I believe that humans have the capacity to find meaning and purpose in life, even if it is fleeting. I believe that humans can find joy and fulfillment in life, even if it is not permanent.
