Jules Romains. Il pathos della città

Jules Romains, on an October evening, going up rue d’Amsterdam, one of the streets of Montmartre, became aware of the bonds that unite in-dividuals, the poet, the city itself. The author of this study then, after remembering the birth of Unanimism, dwells on its founder and his the-ories in which he examined the vast and elementary being of which the road, the cars and passers-by form the body.
