<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>"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." <p/> 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.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Born in Algeria in 1913, Albert Camus published <i>The Stranger</i>--now one of the most widely read novels of this century--in 1942. Celebrated in intellectual circles, Camus was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1957. On January 4, 1960, he was killed in a car accident.
