"La virtud en la montaña. Alpinismo lento" Product Description

Language Castellano
Author Pablo Batalla Cueto
Format 14.5 x 21.5 cm
Today, the humanist army captive and disarmed, the utilitarian troops achieve their last military objectives. Margaret Thatcher wins battles after death and less and less happens, as Montaigne wanted, that it is the enjoyment, and not the possession, that makes us happy. Everything spoils that apotheosis, and it is also taking over the practice of mountaineering. At present, it happens for example that at the same time that mountain clubs are dwindling in membership, see the average age of their members increase dramatically and they despair to attract young sap to guarantee their survival, those same young people crowd mountain marathons that, they frequently receive several thousand applications for just a few tens or hundreds of positions. Runners have taken over the roads and the great natural spaces: competing is all about these days; not to stop doing it at any time; of even turning leisure into business.

It is against this mountaineering Thatcherism that this essay stands up and in defense of slow mountaineering, because in the wake of Juanjo Garbizu's Slow Mountain manifesto, he endorses the conviction that nothing good has ever been achieved quickly and by running, that only in the semantic field of patience reaches humanistic exaltedness and that speed ruins and idiots. Also illustrated, because this hasty mountaineering is not, seeking to shut down the senses, renouncing the learning that is obtained through them; that does not seek to know, but to be known; that he does not dare to know, because he does not dare to stop or give up the equivocal laurels of sporting success. And also anti-capitalist, because only such can be the total, sincere exercise of these principles that incidentally collide with those that encourage and sustain the tyranny of capital.
