Li Baida's hunting fu in Tang Dynasty: "The absurdity of Mu Wang, the song" Baiyun "is in the west mother." Song Ouyang Xiu's poem "Stone in Lingxi" says: "The strangeness wins, and then the absurdity has no roots." Qing Ji cloud "Six Notes of Yuewei Caotang Summer Notes of Luanyang": "Although the language is quite absurd, it seems like a fantasy; However, the teaching of Shinto makes people know and fear, and it is also a warning to the world. You can't use lies to warn. " Wen Yiduo's "Death of Li Bai": "It's ridiculous that Taibai catches the moon and rides whales."

Absurdity originally refers to a drama school in western modernist art, which rose in the late 1950s and early 1960s. Today, this concept has gone far beyond the scope of drama and has risen to a universal and profound important aesthetic category.
The Concise Oxford Dictionary defines "absurdity" as: "absurdity: 1, disharmony. 2. Lack of rationality or appropriateness of harmony (contemporary usage). " Penguin Drama Dictionary defines the essence of absurdity as "there is no purpose to live after the disharmony between man and environment" (absurdity literally means disharmony).
Absurdism is a philosophical term whose etymology is Latin adsurdus, which means "ugly". Used to describe the meaningless, contradictory and disorderly state of life in existentialism.
Meaning: The existence of the basic meaning of a thing must be explained by a higher meaning body. However, the meaning of this higher meaning body must be explained by a higher meaning body than it. This "explanation chain" can't reach a result, so nothing can have supreme significance. Even if this result is found, it may not satisfy us. For example, when a cow discovers that its "supreme significance" is to be slaughtered as food, it will not be satisfied with this "significance". Therefore, according to existentialism and nihilism, life is meaningless and absurd.
Camus, a French existentialist philosopher, described the myth of Sisyphus;
In a universe suddenly deprived of illusion and light, people will feel like an outsider and a stranger. Because he was deprived of the memory of losing his homeland or the hope of the promised land, his exile was irreversible. This separation between people and life, actors and scenes is an absurd emotion.
solution
Facing the absurd life, some people think that suicide is a seemingly rational plan; But most people try to find other ways. Camus suggested that suicide is not a good plan: if life is really absurd, the only way to face it is to keep one's self-reaction to absurdity; Therefore, if there is no conscience, this kind of thought and absurd interaction cannot exist. Please refer to The Myth of Sisyphus and The Rebellious Man.
Some people find meaning through gods or religions.
"Rejecting meaning" and defining the meaning of life as "being alive" itself is another solution.
Many people accept that life is meaningless, but they don't think it is a problem. As above, even if the supreme meaning exists, it may not satisfy us. Instead, they create meaning through their own lives. Although this meaning is not supreme, it can give people motivation.
