Blurb
The Path to Rome (1902) by Hilaire Belloc is a travel memoir recounting Belloc's walking pilgrimage from central France across the Alps to Rome. Blending geography, history, politics, and personal reflection, the book captures his joy in physical exertion, encounters with ordinary people, and deep attachment to Catholic Europe. Along the way, Belloc digresses freely-on roads, rivers, faith, and civilization-using the journey as a lens to reflect on the spiritual and cultural unity of Europe, culminating in Rome as both a physical destination and a symbolic center of Western Christendom.
Biography
Hilaire Belloc (1870 - 1953), englischer Schriftsteller und Politiker. Er schrieb Romane, weltanschauliche Essays, Lyrik und Reiseberichte. Im Gedächtnis geblieben sind jedoch vor allem seine Kinderbücher, die durch ihre witzig-ironische Darstellungsweise und ihren satirischen Charakter heute wie zur Zeit ihres Erscheinens begeisterte Leser finden.
