For Camus, the absurd is a fundamental concept that arises from the conflict between humanity's desire for meaning and the apparent indifference of the universe. The absurd is the inherent contradiction between our longing for purpose, order, and rationality, and the fact that the world seems to be governed by chance, chaos, and uncertainty. This confrontation between the human need for meaning and the apparent silence of the universe leads to a sense of absurdity, which Camus describes as "the confrontation between the human need and the unreasonable silence of the world" (Camus, 1942, p. 18).
