To say it was a 'string' case , where one case is mirrored by another was interesting and reasonable to assume.

The Stranger (French: L'Étranger [letʁɑ̃ʒe], lit. 'The Foreigner'), also published in English as The Outsider, is a 1942 novella written by French author Albert Camus. The first of Camus' novels published in his lifetime, the story follows Meursault, an indifferent settler in French Algeria, who, weeks after his mother's funeral, kills an unnamed Arab man in Algiers. The story is divided into two parts, presenting Meursault's first-person narrative before and after the killing. [1] When we do, we discover that these activities require the overt or tacit cooperation of many people and groups to occur as they do. When workers collude to restrict industrial production (Roy, 1954), they do so with the help of inspectors, maintenance men, and the man in the tool crib. When members of industrial firms steal, they do so with the active cooperation of others above and below them in the firm's hierarchy (Dalton, 1959). They are all human, whether it are “Socs” or “Greasers”, they all just want to live their lives, they want to be happy and accepted for who they are and in the end they actually aren’t as different as they seem to be. It’s an epiphany us readers experience while we read this book, but it’s a lesson not all of the characters learn. >_< Feuerlicht, Ignace (December 1963). "Camus's L'Etranger Reconsidered".

Killing an Arab", the 1979 debut single by the Cure, was described by Robert Smith as "a short poetic attempt at condensing my impression of the key moments in 'l'entranger'[ sic] (The Outsider) by Albert Camus".

Retrieved April 25, 2022. in the fifties and sixties, there was seemingly more free-floating apprehension and fear: the a-bomb, the draft, various factors contributed to this fear of an imminent death beyond anyone's control. all this anxiety and fear of the establishment created a more pronounced sense of "us" and "them" that i think i blabbed on a little in the pigman review, but children were just treated like smaller adults, really. and the literature reflects this. all of these books seem to emphasize a value placed on the preservation of childhood innocence - staying gold, protecting a younger sister from the taint of phoniness, encouraging kids to act like kids and roller skate through the house and disregard the parental restrictions in this one safe place... People] do what they do with an eye on what others have done, are doing, and may do in the future. One tries to fit his own line of action into the actions of others, just as each of them likewise adjusts his own developing actions to what he sees and expects others to do. The result of all this adjusting and fitting in can be called a collective action, especially if it is kept in mind that the term covers more than just a conscious collective agreement to, let's say, go on strike, but also extends to participating in a school class, having a meal together, or crossing the street--each of these seen as something being done by a lot of people together.

Most of the beginning of the story revolves around Ponyboy and Johnny. They are the best of friends and poor Johnny seems to have it bad no matter which way he turns. His parents treat him bad, he sleeps outside most of the time and he got a very bad beating from the socs. That's what they do, cruise around and find a greaser or two alone and gang up on them. They damn near beat Johnny to death and all of the other friends always rally around him and try to protect him from things. Even if you read it with reservations you must admit it provides a reading list of seminal works, mainly of the 20th century: Hermann Hesse, Mann, Tolstoy, T.E. Lawrence, Blake, Nietzsche, Dostoevsky, Eliot and Yeats ( I only began to read Dostoevsky, Mann and Hesse in my 20s). Even his detractors admit his talent for writing readable summaries of books and riveting biographical outlines. Robert "Bob" Sheldon: Considered the leader of the Socs.

Now, this might not sound precisely like enjoyable holiday reading, but once you open this book and begin to grasp its central idea, I defy you not to be hooked! Wilson takes your mind to new limits, demolishing mental walls as if they did not exist, in such a way that you can never look at mundane existence in quite the same way again. The original French-language novel was published on May 19, 1942 in Paris by Gallimard as L' Étranger. The book started appearing in bookstores in June 1942; only 4,400 copies of it were printed. Ve kitabı özetle yazar şunları bize aktarır; Yabancının sorunu, dünyayı ‘kötümser’ görmeye tekabül eder. Bu kötümserliğin doğru ve haklı olduğunu göstermeye çalıştım. Bu yüzdendir ki kötümserlik ‘ölmüş benliklerinin sıçrama tahtasına basarak yükseklere doğru’ ilerleyen insana dair hümanist idealleri alaşağı eder ve kendini bilmediği takdirde filozofun dünyayı bilmesinin bir anlamı olmadığını söyleyerek felsefeyi eleştirir. İdeal ‘nesnel felsefenin salt düşünürlerce değil, düşünür, şair ve eylem adamının birleştiren insanlar tarafından yaratılacağını söyler. Felsefenin ilk sorusu ‘Evren durup dururken nereden çıktı?’ değil ‘Hayatımızı nasıl yaşamalıyız?’ olmalıdır, amacı entelektüel olarak tutarlı bir sistem değil, bireyin kurtuluşu olmalıdır.

You could see The Outsider as King’s take on fake news, moving it from the political realm to something more personal. Lies being sold as truth: what form could that concept take? But, taking up question (ii), what of social-scientific theories and concepts themselves? Surely beyond (or "underneath") the common sense of individual agents described by the sociologist, they ought to occupy a central place in sociology, just as fields do in eletrodynamics and natural selection principles do in biology? Isn't the sociologists' job to uncover such hidden principles, and construct theories describing the "truth" of social reality? Here lies one of the most precious gems of symbolic interactionism. In answer to this question, it may seem as if there are only two possible answers: either to agree that the job of sociologists (functionalist trope of Durkheim or Parsons comes to mind) is to go hunting after master principles or laws which dictate social behavior and define social ontology (the so-called "grand theories"); or, contrariwise, that there are absolutely no such things as social "theories" to be ultimately developed, and the best we can hope for is to describe groups' and individual's stances and relations, making no attempt to "generate theory". Wilson uses an excellent metaphor to get us out of our pit. He says to just imagine one of our feared primary school teachers telling us to get our act together - PRONTO! Worked for me.maybe this is just what happens when a teen girl writes this kind of material, tomboy or not. i had seen the movie before, so i knew it was about pretty boys fighting, but there is a lot more at work here, subtextually. i have also seen rumble fish, which is an awful movie based on another hinton book that is even more... musical, but is an excuse to look at this: what is more interesting, from a serious literary perspective is just an observation from reading this, the pigman, and revisiting the chocolate war and catcher in the rye for this portion of my young adult readers' advisory class which will meet this tuesday where we will discuss the "classics" of teen fiction. (and i know catcher wasn't specifically produced for a teen audience, but it is on the damn syllabus and if it makes you happier, i will call this "the teen in literature" instead) The group deduce the Outsider is hiding in a cave and when they arrive, they are immediately fired upon by Hoskins, who is in a sniper position overlooking them after being sent there by the Outsider. Howie and Pelley are both killed and Sablo is wounded. Following a brief standoff, Ralph kills Hoskins. Ralph and Holly make their way further into the cave where they are then greeted by the Outsider, who resembles a mixture of Bolton and Maitland.
