Fascinating notebook by the great writer from Belluno, which opens with timely and prescient observations on the environment: "Aggression and violence of man towards the environment, pollution - No to civilization if this is civilization." Following are pages of very short notes, mostly related to conferences and conventions where he participates as a journalist. "UN, Unesco. The utopians are today the true realists. Argan shows = communication system." Followed by notes on aesthetic research, on historical research, on technical and scientific research. Then reflections on time, on its "moral use", all surrounded by drawings "I don't believe that technological progress is irreversible - when certain values collapse. What is irreversible?" All to be studied.
