Résumé
The essay argues that the covid-19 crisis has caused a humanist leap on a planetary scale. It then examines possible objections from three currents of thought (posthumanism, tran-shumanism, hyperhumanism) which believe, in its own way, that the coronavirus pandemic demonstrates, on the contrary, that it is important to go beyond any humanist interpretation. It concludes that such an outbidding of humanism is not convincing.
