The Stranger of Albert Camus

Today I´m going to talk about of a book that I´m like it. This book was written for a writer of Argelia, his name is Albert Camus, a existencialist writer: He named the book with title of "The Stranger".
He attends his mother's funeral. A few days later, he kills an Arab man in French Algiers, who was involved in a conflict with a friend. Meursault is tried and sentenced to death. The story is divided into two parts, presenting Meursault's first person narrative view before and after the murder, respectively.
The Stranger is a narrative with philosophy content.The narrator is named Meursault and the story opens with him reading a telegram informing him of his mother’s death.  Meusault is not overly shocked as his mother is old and has been living in a home for the elderly.    At the funeral he doesn’t cry as he is actually more overcome with heat due to the hot Algerian summer than with grief.  The funeral is followed by more everyday events and a friendship with a local pimp. 
The novel is a one of my fauvorites books, because I remember the absurdities

Oriental Philosophy

Introduction In this essay I am going to write about the oriental philosophy and their history. I choose this topic because I think that in general in the school and the university the attention is focus in the Occidental philosophy, for example in the school begin teach the Greek philosophy but nothing say about of the Hindu or Japanese philosophy. In general too the academic world not consider the oriental philosophy how a material to work with their essays because usually not are receive with seriously. In this essay I will explain and analyze the oriental philosophy, their history and ideas in comparison with the occidental philosophy, their similarity and difference. I begin write about the Hindu philosophy, after I will write about of Chinese philosophy for finish with the Japanese philosophy.   After I write the short reflection of the comparison between oriental and occidental philosophy.
