| Publisher Description: Desde la m s remota antig edad, el hombre se ha sentido impresionado por las monta as. Las concibi , en principio como morada de los dioses, m s tarde como reducto de misterios y amenazas y solo mucho m s adelante se atrevi a emprender su descubrimiento. A partir de ese momento, la historia de la relaci n entre la monta a y el hombre se precipita: se suceden las conquistas, las haza as... pero tambi n las tragedias, que son su precio. Numerosos alpinistas han escrito p ginas gloriosas o pat ticas. Sus relatos poseen la emoci n de la aventura y el valor del testimonio. Ahora bien, entre los muchos libros que se han publicado sobre las epopeyas del alpinismo, pocos tan singulares como «La monta a y el hombre de Georges Sonnier. Since ancient times, man has been impressed by mountains. He conceived them, at first as the abode of the gods, later as a stronghold of mysteries and threats, and only much later did he dare to undertake their discovery. From that moment on, the history of the relationship between the mountain and man hastened: conquests, exploits, but also tragedies, which were their price. Many mountaineers have written glorious or pathetic pages. These stories have the emotion of adventure and the value of testimony. Yet among the many books that have been published on mountaineering epics, few are as unique as La monta a y el hombre by Georges Sonnier. |
