Absurdism is very closely related to [[existentialism]] and [[nihilism]] and has its [[origins]] in the 19th century Danish [[philosopher]], [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S%C3%B8ren_Kierkegaard Søren Kierkegaard], who chose to confront the [[crisis]] humans faced with the Absurd by developing existential philosophy. Absurdism as a [[belief]] [[system]] was born of the European existentialist movement that ensued, specifically when the French Algerian philosopher and [[writer]] [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Albert_Camus Albert Camus] rejected certain aspects from that [[philosophical]] line of [[thought]] and published his manuscript [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Myth_of_Sisyphus The Myth of Sisyphus]. The aftermath of [[World War II]] provided the [[social]] [[environment]] that stimulated absurdist views and allowed for their popular [[development]], especially in the devastated country of France.[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absurdism]
