Abstract

The author analizes Camus’s life and works, according with the Comparative Individual Psychology of Alfred Adler. So, it is more comprehensible the writer’s way from a childhood of illness and sacrifices, which were expecially affective, to the Nobel prize for literature and it is possible to give a meaning to paradoxes of his literary production. By brilliant poetic creations and meditated reflections, Camus often reproposes some fundamental adlerian terms like the inferiority feeling, its compensation pursuing an aim, the importance of maternal love to develop the social interest. And just into social interest Camus founded the meaning of his life
