The aim of the following essay is to present the concept of hope included in the philosophic work of Albert Camus. In the essay, I contest the classification of Camus as an atheistic thinker; without interpreting the sum of his work as theistic philosophy, similarly to Thomas Merton, I define Camus as a ‘religious thinker’. After describing the most important concepts of the French philosopher of the absurd and of metaphysical rebellion, I move on to the characteristics of a concept closely associated with the two aforementioned ones – hope. Hope, as understood by Camus, springs from rebellion against the pervasive evil that is defined in interpersonal injustice, indifference, and hatred, and which concludes in death. It is precisely the issue of death and the inability to provide absolute answers regarding the existence or nonexistence of God that lead to the theme of hope, which is fulfilled in interpersonal love and ethical heroism towards the overwhelming despair, strictly related to death.

The aim of the article is to elucidate the problem of happiness in Albert Camus' reflexion. Analysing Camus' work, the author makes an attempt at finding out possible forms of affirmation of man in the world of indifference, illusion, nonsense and shows the way in which the Camus' man should choose to rejoice at his own existence. This way starts from an act of understanding the absurd, next it leads to a revolt, and finally arrives at the choice of real life and the experience of true happiness in deep connexions with other people.
