Synopsis "Create Dangerously: The Power and Responsibility of the Artist (in English)"

"To create today means to create dangerously. Every publication is a deliberate act, and that act makes us vulnerable to the passions of a century that forgives nothing." In 1957, Nobel Prize-winning philosopher Albert Camus gave a speech entitled "Create Dangerously," effectively a call to arms for artists, in particular those who came from an immigrant background, like he did. Camus understood the necessity of those making art as a part of civil society. A bold cry for artistic freedom and responsibility, his words today remain as timely as ever. In this new translation, Camus's message, available as a stand-alone little book for the first time, will resonate with a new generation of writers and artists.

Albert Camus (Mondovi hoy Dréan, Argelia francesa, 7 de noviembre de 1913-Villeblevin, Francia, 4 de enero de 1960) fue un novelista, ensayista, dramaturgo, filósofo y periodista francés nacido en la Argelia francesa. Su pensamiento se desarrolla bajo el influjo de los razonamientos filosóficos de Schopenhauer, Nietzsche y el existencialismo alemán.

Se le ha atribuido la conformación del pensamiento filosófico conocido como absurdismo, si bien en su texto «El enigma» el propio Camus reniega de la etiqueta de «profeta del absurdo». Se le ha asociado frecuentemente con el existencialismo, aunque Camus siempre se consideró ajeno a él.2​ Pese a su alejamiento consciente con respecto al nihilismo, rescata de él la idea de libertad individual.

Formó parte de la resistencia francesa durante la ocupación alemana, y se relacionó con los movimientos libertarios de la posguerra. En 1957 se le concedió el Premio Nobel de Literatura por «el conjunto de una obra que pone de relieve los problemas que se plantean en la conciencia de los hombres de la actualidad».
