could definitely be called ?absurd heroes? without even a shadow of a doubt. Overall, it is fair to say that Camus did an especially good job of explaining why and how Sisyphus was an ?absurd hero?. He showed through his writing powerful imaging and wonderfully explained how the character of the myth used mind over matter to defeat his destiny. Camus showed through explanations, how people should live and how there is, ?No fate that can not be surmounted by scorn.? It is true that when faced by absurdity, which most humans are, you can only become a hero by feeling scorn or contempt and not being scared by having no purpose. In Camus? eyes, you become a hero by understanding that their may not be a point to life, but that all you have to know is that you exist and be conscious of

it. This in turn will make you an ?absurd hero? like Sisyphus or even Meursault. 31d
