Stephen West: 在这一系列节目中,我一直在探讨卡缪如何致力于肯定人类的本性,同时避免陷入体系构建的陷阱。卡缪认为,人们常常会合理化自己的行为,试图逃避被评判和犯错。在《堕落》中,卡缪将对人性的推理扩展到对判断和人类错误的思考。主人公克莱蒙斯表面上是一个道德高尚的人,但他经历了一系列事件,揭示了他道德上的可疑之处。他没有选择接受这种流放感,而是创造出各种策略和理由,以便继续生活,而不必真正面对自己的局限性。他意识到自己道德上的浅薄后,便在阿姆斯特丹的一个酒吧里扮演法官和忏悔者的双重角色,通过自我贬低来消除别人评判他的余地。现代社会中,人们常常使用各种策略来避免内疚或承认自己的错误,而卡缪对这些人抱有同情,因为他认为现代生活本身就导致了这些策略的产生。
