honors the 2006 promotion/tenure of

Lee Garth Vigilant

 Sociology and

Criminal Justice

 

Camus, Albert.  The Myth of Sisyphus and Other Essays.  New York: Vintage Books, 1991.

Dr. Vigilant chose this book because:

“I first read Albert Camus’ Myth of Sisyphus as a teenager in the late 1980’s.  I have returned to this book and to the capstone essay that describes Sisyphus’ quandary several times over the years.  Camus provides a lucid and indispensable description of the late-modern condition (and its absurdity).  Like Camus, I try to imagine Sisyphus happy.”
