This is a video in my new Core Concepts series -- designed to provide students and lifelong learners a brief discussion focused on one main concept from a classic philosophical text and thinker.
This Core Concept video focuses on Albert Camus' early work, The Myth of Sisyphus, and specifically on the third of the sketches or examples Camus provides in part 2 of the work, illustrating ways in which a person might live out an "ethics of quantity" in the face of the absurd. Camus discusses conquest and the person he calls "the conquerer", but this person in late modern times will be quite different from conquerors in earlier times.

You once recommended this book to me, about 12 years ago. Still one of my favorite philosophers.
