ABSURDISM IN THE PLAYES OF BERTOLT BRECHT

The presence and availability of material can help develop the understanding and skills of the students about Absurdism. Absurdism is the idea that the world is meaningless, and that human life accordingly is without meaning. Because any "true" meaning exists outside of the realm of human knowledge, individuals attempting to find meaning can only act according to an invented meaning, but this is self-deception. Instead, the individual should seek out freedom from those meanings imposed on him or her by society, and embrace the lack of purpose in the world.
