Book excerpt: En arpentant pendant plus de quarante ans le massif du Mont-Blanc, Pierre Tairraz, chercheur de vérité, a donné une âme particulière à ces pans surgis des entrailles de la terre. Il a tracé, dans l'austérité des versants encore à l'ombre, des lignes pures qui conduisent les hommes vers les cimes. Il a transformé le Mont-Blanc en un véritable monde de lumières. Dans ses pas, Mario Colonel a emprunté à son tour les chemins de l'émerveillement pour nous offrir celui-ci en partage. En sept chapitres, ils nous invitent à découvrir ce massif extraordinaire : le Mont-Blanc, seigneur des Alpes, surplombant tout le sud-est de la France ; mais aussi le versant italien mystique et rude, tourné vers le Val d'Aoste ; le versant suisse sauvage et peu parcouru ; des bassins entièrement dédiés à l'altitude comme ceux de Miage ou d'Argentière. Depuis la première parution de cet ouvrage en 1996, d'autres livres ont été consacrés au Mont-Blanc, d'autres photographes ont abordé cette source d'inspiration inépuisable, mais aucun n'a pu faire oublier le regard de Pierre Tairraz.

This book was released on 2020-06-01 with total page 730 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The essays in this book, written by poets, novelists, mountain-climbers and academics from all over the world, evoke the representation of mountains in the English-speaking world as artists, writers, philosophers or mountain-climbers have represented them from the sixteenth to the twenty-first centuries. From the Alps to the Pyrenees, from Mount Fuji to Mount Shasta, from the Himalayas to the Scottish Highlands, from Ikere in Nigeria to Devil's Tower in the United States, from Uluru in Australia to the most northern mountain of the Arctic, the shapes of the world speak the same language and tell the world its own story. This interdisciplinary book, weaving together mountaineering, literature, philosophy, painting, cinema, ecology, history, palaeontology, geography, geopolitics, toponymy, law, religion and myth, invites people to an innovative reading of mountains: it reveals the close relationship existing between the shapes of the world and all forms of writing and, at the same time, it shows how the representations of the imagination may be instrumental in protecting the natural world. The story told by the landscape inscribes a broken line in the shapes of the world, tearing the landscape like a fragile page whenever historical and political events (wars, mining or deforestation) leave scars in the landscape; but writers' and artists' representations of mountains constitute a path to awareness as they are not only a painting of beauty, but an image of our link to nature and a warning as well. For centuries the image of the mountain has conveyed a symbolism telling the story of human thought, and this book shows to what extent literature and art play an essential part in our awareness of nature.
