Camus’s Caligula isn’t just a play about power or madness. It’s about what happens when someone faces loss and suddenly realizes the world has no meaning—and can’t live with that truth. Psychologically, Caligula shows how grief, absolute control, and unmet emotional needs can twist awareness into cruelty. It’s less about a “crazy emperor” and more about a human mind breaking under the weight of too much truth and no compassion.
