The misanthropes of Camus and Greene: Calígula and Dr. Fischer
This paper compares the characters of Caligula and Dr. Fischer, who correspondingly appear in the works Calígula, by Albert Camus and the novel Dr. Fischer of Geneva or the Bomb Party, by Graham Greene. Upon the basis of the Platonic concept of misanthropy and the relationship between the latter and megalomania, a series of parallelisms are commented and some differences are defined in order to arrive at philosophical conclusions.
