In the Book House on Bakhtrion, a lecture was held by philologist Levan Berdzenishvili on the topic - "Albert Camus - the conscience of the century". Albert Camus is a 20th century French philosopher, journalist and Nobel Prize laureate writer. He is considered a great moralist of the post-war period. Camus criticizes Soviet totalitarianism, injustice to the population of North Africa, defends the Spanish anti-fascist refugees, victims of Stalinism, etc. The main place in Camus' work is occupied by three cycles, namely: the absurd (the novel "The Stranger", the essay "The Myth of Sisyphus", two plays "Caligula" and "The Misunderstanding"), rebellion (the novel "The Black Plague", Essay "Rebellious Man", two plays "The Righteous" and "Siege") and love (the novel "The First Man"...). Unfortunately, he could not finish the third cycle. Albert Camus' works have been translated into many languages and he has many admirers all over the world.
