In 1979, Pierre Deligne has stated a far-reaching conjecture on the nature of so-called critical values of L-functions attached to irreducible motives. In this talk we will first explain the genesis/background of his conjecture by considering in some details classical results on the zeta function and then explain in due shortness our approach to a (partial) solution of the problem over CM-fields.
