Camus, voice, philosophy of educationAbstract
To understand Camus we must listen to his voice, let him speak in his texts. In them he speaks to us of a common humanity, of a human nature composed of longings for beauty and suffering. He tells us that there is no life without dialogue, and that in most of the world this dialogue has been replaced by polemic, and that war, violence, has educated us, as it did the generation of which he himself was a part. This text tries to think through some of Camus' ideas and to reconsider his thesis that our survival as humanity depends on keeping a kind of inner fire burning, which is made up of the stories we tell ourselves, of the books we can continue to read with others, in short, of a culture placed at the service of our common humanity. Those stories, those books, that culture which today, as we are well aware, no longer occupy a prominent place in our universities. Unfortunately.
