Modern Prometheus at the top of Montblana
Fragment of the book of David Vincent "History of Loneliness" David Vincent, the author of the History of Loneliness, studied all kinds of forms of voluntary and forced solitude, which existed in Europe since the 18th century, to understand how loneliness in modern culture was comprehended. We publish a fragment of his book, dedicated to the golden eyelid of mountaineering in the Swiss Alps. Starting from February 24, 2022, we were all in the face of the advancing barbarism, violence and lies.
