Signed copy dedicated to Jean Ballard 1893-1973. First edition presentation-copy inscribed to Jean Ballard of Camus' second collection of three published betweeen 1950 and 1958 of chronicles. Camus started preparing this second volume in 1953 which brings togther articles interviews polemical letters etc. dealing with world affairs since 1948 the cut-off point of the first volume. Actuelles II covers the troubling moments of the Cold War from the Prague coup 1948 to Stalin's death 1953 see Vanney. In this volume he summed his hopes in a brief preface: "The new world true liberation was not yet just around the corner but nihilism was a thing of the past and creation always possible now became more than ever necessary. A long section of Actuelles II looked backward . But a final section entitled 'Création et Liberté' was an attempt to demonstrate the continuing need for art. 'It's not enough to criticize one's times one must also try to give them a form and a future.'" Lottman: 521 Camus completed the reading of the proofs in Thonon-les-Bains "at the last moment adding the speech he had recently delivered at Saint Etienne". This speech was delivered in May 1953 at the Labor Exchange where a group of labor organizations had called a meeting. Camus "denounced threats to freedom in Western societies as well as Eastern ones pleaded for freedom as the one good the one heritage of the great revolutionary conquests of two centuries." Lottman: 522 Actuelles II is also strongly tied to his book-long essay L'homme révolté EN: The Rebel published in 1951. According to Vanney "The book's significance can be gauged if necessary by the sheer volume of commentary and criticism it generated from both the right and the left." own translation. In 1952 Camus had written a defense of his work but decided not to publish it and instead prepared the current volume of which seven out of sixteen texts revisit his controversial book. "Since Camus had decided against publishing Défense de L’Homme révolt written in the wake of these polemics reading them becomes essential to understanding the nuances and interpretations he brings to his essay. Apart from an interview with Pierre Berger they are presented in epistolary form and therefore should be read alongside the criticisms that prompted them." own translation see Vanney After WWII Albert Camus 1913-1960 became as a novelist and playwright moralist and political theorist "the spokesman of his own generation and the mentor of the next not only in France but also in Europe and eventually the world" Cruickshank 2026. Jean Ballard 1893-1973 was a French actor poet and editor. Between 1925-66 he ran the publisher Les Cahiers du Sud “The Southern Notebooks”. Sources and further reading: Aronson Ronald.

DL consignment. Shelved in Case 6. Albert Camus was born November 7 1913 in Dréan Algeria then French Algeria. Camus' mother was deaf and illiterate his father killed in acting in 1914 serving in World War I and he would grow up very poor pied-noir a slang term for French and other European people born in Algeria. Camus would be diagnosed with tuberculosis in 1930 at which time he moved in with his uncle Gustave Acault. Living with his uncle Camus found a great love for philosophy taking particularly to Greek philosophers and Nietzsche. This love of philosophy would push Camus to completing a degree in philosophy in 1936. During and after his time in university Camus would join the Algerian Communist Party and Algerian People's Party both of which sought freedom from colonial rule in Algeria. Camus' work with the ACP greatly involved organizing the "Théâtre du Travail" Worker's Theater which would be renamed "Théâtre de l'Equipe" Theater of the Team after Camus and the ACP split. Some of the scripts written for "Théâtre de l'Equipe" would become the basis for his later novels. In 1938 Camus solidified his anti-colonial feelings working for a leftist newspaper which spoke out against the colonial regime as well as the rising fascist regimes across Europe. In 1940 Camus moved to Paris after the banning of the newspaper there producing his "first cycle" of works on the absurd including his most famous work "L'Étranger" "The Stranger". With the outbreak of World War II and the German invasion of France Camus fled Paris moving first to Lyon in southeast France then to Algeria and then to the Frech Alps to recover from a flare up of tuberculosis. It was in the Alps that Camus began work on his "second cycle" of works now dealing more with revolt. "La Peste" or "The Plague" would be published in 1947 in France and in 1948 in the US riding on Camus' infamy gained both for his earliest works and for his role in the French Resistance against German occupation. It depicts the Algerian city of Oran amidst a devastating plague and many different people's reactions to it from feelings of despair to those who fight bravely against the illness. Both Camus' own tuberculosis and a cholera epidemic which killed a large portion of Oran in 1849 were inspirations for the novel though it was set in the 1940's. The novel has been noted as allegorical for the French resistance to Nazi occupation during World War II. Upon it's release "The Plague" received generally positive critical reception with moderate commercial success. However during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 the novel became a best-seller with publisher Penguin Classics reporting difficulties matching demand. Many hailed "The Plague" as a reflection of the time with lockdown measures compared to the novel's cordon sanitaire and Camus' own daughter noting that it should be inspiration for people to take responsibility in how they reacted to the pandemic. 1387500.
