20 Questions with Dr. George Heffernan

George Heffernan Professor of Philosophy at Merrimack College, he earned his B.A. and M.A. from The Catholic University of America and his Ph.D. from the University of Cologne, Germany. He also holds the highest degree in the German Language awarded by the Goethe Institute of Munich as well as the diploma of a State-Certified Translator and Interpreter for the German Language granted by the Chamber of Industry and Commerce of Bonn.

Enjoy this lively and engaging scholar of the very first order. Professor Heffernan has presented many papers on Camus and has been the skillful author of several articles on Camus that have shaped the way we think about Camus. especially: “‘Rien, rien n’avait d’importance et je savais bien pourquoi’ (‘Nothing, nothing mattered, and I well knew why’): The World According to Meursault—or A Critical Attempt to Understand the Absurdist Philosophy of the Protagonist of Albert Camus’s The Stranger”, Journal of Camus Studies 2 (2012), 221–259

A bit of a longer podcast at 1.37 but well worth your time.


Enjoy this wonderful conversation about Camus.
