Journal #6

  1. Does Camus show a change in Meursault’s philosophy by having him think about less physical things during the trial?
  2. Is Camus showing the reader that Meursault has a mental condition by using indifferent words when describing the shooting?
  3. Why does Camus use a depressing tone in the court room?
  4. Is Camus trying to show a change in Meursault when he suddenly tries to defend himself? “I blurted out that it was because of the sun. People laughed” (103)
  5. Is Camus showing Meursault as an absurdist by using a short sentence structure and limited adjectives?





Journal #5

 I think Camus split the novel into two parts to show a change in Meursault. He becomes more emotional in part II.
