Abstract
«L'ETRANGER» OF ALBERT CAMUS: READING THE ARAB STEREOTYPE AGAINST THE GRAIN This study attempts to explore the « non-portrait » of the Arab in Camus' s novel, « L'étranger », compared with his politically engaged articles. « The Etranger » is a fictional and parodie translation of a way in which a robot, the dominant mentality and the legal system function, turning the algerian muslim into a deshumanized, devalued and stereotyped person. The « foreigner » is the automaton rejected by his own people and, in the same time, the victim denied in his identity and his right to exist. This is a sociological as opposed to a metaphysical reading of the novel.
