On the 24th of June, 1958 the philosopher and anti-nuclear activist Günther Anders was flying to Japan to take part in the Fourth World Conference Against Atomic and Hydrogen Bombs and for Disarmament. He recollected this experience in his book “The Man on the Bridge: Diary from Hiroshima and Nagasaki”.

A man entertains briefly the idea that suffering can't be counted, that two who suffer are not more than one who suffers. Adapted from the book: "Visit to Hades: Auschwitz and Breslau" (1966) by Günther Anders.

French writer Roger Caillois was struck by the Second World War in Argentina and was forced to stay there. He visited Patagonia in 1942, where he started developing his passion for the mineral world. In 1970 he wrote The Writing of Stones, a philosophical commentary on his own stone collection. Throughout his life he maintained a correspondence with Argentine writer Victoria Ocampo.
