The Human Crisis by Albert Camus

I tried to read Camus's "The Stranger" as a young teen. That did not work out as I planned. Way, way beyond me. However, while the protagonist was considering his own physicality and where he fit into this world: "nobody, no matter the force, can occupy my current space...," resonated with me at once. I was a scared, depersonalized and always anxious kid. I felt alone in my anxiety but that paragraph in "The Stranger" gave voice to my pain. I did not feel so alienated and frightened; that meant the world to me. My takeaway into adulthood is this, when I'm in pain, if I turn to the arts for solace, I will usually feel better.

type video you'd watch past 12am

7:01 is where "the famous talk" actually starts... everything before that is preamble (though some of it was Camus)

Still very relevant today...........

This is amazing. Thank you so much for posting!

So much to learn from history! I enjoyed this video very much. I hear you loud and clear!

Thank you for sharing this! I'm just starting to study Camus.

What a great man Camus was.

I enjoyed listening to this so much! thank you for posting.

A very interesting lecture.

As the saying goes, "Those who do not learn from History are Doomed to Repeat It".

Superb lecture offering all kinds of insight wisdom approach understanding experience and a sincere read.

Thanks for posting this video. It is truly a n incredible speech by Camus, whose words have become even more relevant nowadays with Russia's expansionism. I wonder if we can add subtitles in other languages so more people can benefit from these wise words

Thank you
