Science and technology has nearly become the first productivity, which promotesthe violent development of western modern of economy greatly in the 20th century.Science has combined with economy, which forms the strongest economic coalitionsince the dawn of human civilization of human society. In the new structure body that isformed gradually, " people's degree of freedom is reduced instead, and the degree ofalienation is strengthened. Westerners are in great spiritual alarmed aggravation ". Onethe other hand, the world war during that time has not only destroyed the steady sensethat people, but also has wavered the cultural mansion of the traditional rational doctrinein the west. The traditional idea and faith have been bungled into pieces by bloodyreality. Worried sense, disaster sense and sense of vanishing into thin air become thesigns of the times. Under such a social background, as a unique existentialism person ofFrance in the 20th century, in the face of growing with facing a difficult choice, AlbertCamus has begun the thinking and exploration of absurdity.Undeniably, Albert Camus'absurd philosophy has relation to his own experienceof life and philosophical thought of forefathers .The childhood full of poverty andhappy made him believe that both sunshine and suffering are the present of the life. Theyouth seeking knowledge made him begin to think about the limitation of human beingand unavoidable experience of birth and dying, which made him possess acute eyes andpondering individual character. The experience of participating in politics afterwardsenables him to treat the history and justice more wisely, which have heavy influence onforming his conception of absurdity and ideological system of humanitarianism.As to the origin of his thought, Albert Camus critically absorbed Berg-son's lifephilosophy, Nietzsche's superman's philosophy and power will, Kierkegaard's fantasticexperience, the meaning of S.Kierkegaard's existence, Jaspers' existence essence,Husserl's rational limitation, and so on.
