Camus and Sartre brilliantly depicts the essential distinctions in the nature of the commitment of two of the most influential thinkers of the twentieth century. It is not necessarily the one who most publicly and spectacularly supports the right causes who is committed in the deepest, elemental sense. Whereas Sartre gives the impression that his allegiances and his acts-laudable as they often have been-are the result of cold, logical analysis, Camus-less overt, less obtrusive in his actions-was "a man of passion," whose commitment is ever to the concrete, the individual, to each man rather than to the abstraction, Mankind.
