Symbolism in Camus’ "The Plague" For the first essay for Integrative Studies 300 I would like to write on the Camus work‚ The Plague. Since Albert Camus has a philosophical view unlike that of many western writers‚ the book can serve as an excellent reflection on an unpopular view of life‚ living‚ and death.

The Bubonic Plague is a disease that started around 1346 in China. This disease was very deadly. “In five short years the plague killed around 25 to 45 percent of the population where it struck”.

Criminals‚ for example‚ do not become criminals overnight; it’s a process in which they forget they once had kind and forgiving hearts.
