The Crisis of Man

The Crisis of Man (original title in French: “La Crise de l’homme”) was a lecture delivered by Nobel Prize–winning author Albert Camus at Columbia University on March 28, 1946.[1] The lecture focused on the moral decline of humanity and on how to promote peace.[2][3][better source needed]

The lecture was re-delivered 70 years later, at the same amphitheater, narrated by actor Viggo Mortensen.[4]
