To read the rebel: Genealogy and phenomenology in Albert Camus (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798281994736)

This short book, born from the author's participation in the webinar "Albert Camus - The Rebel, 70 years," proposes an interpretive key for the controversial 1952 essay based on the ideas of genealogy - in the terms proposed by Nietzsche in his On the Genealogy of Morality - and phenomenology, presenting the various facets and historical events narrated by Camus as phenomena of revolt in their cultural and historical manifestations.

Its elaboration is also a response to the request of the Franco-Algerian artist, who longed for readers who would engage with his work attentively. Rafael Pereira de Menezes, by reading Camus on his own terms, presents the public with an original approach to one of the most instigating works of the 20th century.
