Questo libro studia l’evoluzione dell’immagine della montagna da luogo orrido e pericolosa barriera per l’attività umana a luogo cruciale, laboratorio della natura, in grado di raccontare la lunga e complessa storia della terra, come venne vista dal tardo Rinascimento. Fino a divenire, con i Romantici, un luogo materno e minaccioso, in cui noi contemporanei frenetici e ansiosi di pace possiamo riconoscerci. [Abstract translated by Google Translate: This is the abstract in English… This book studies the evolution of the perception of mountains in Western thought and how this concept changed from a horrid and dangerous barrier for human activity to a crucial place, a laboratory of nature able to tell the long and complex history of the earth, as it was seen from the late Renaissance. Later on, with Romanticism, the mountains would become a maternal and threatening place, in which we contemporaries, frenetic and anxious for peace, can recognize ourselves.]
