Created in 1946, the Alpina publishing house is a benchmark on excursionism, with its extremely popular maps and mountain editions. It was established immediately after the Second World War on the initiative of the geographer Salvador Llobet and connected to the very important tradition of excursionism in Catalonia, linked since the 19th century to literature on and knowledge of the surroundings. This book examines the changes in the way maps are made and highlights their cultural aspect, featuring twenty-five routes that combine texts from Catalan classics with Alpina maps. The starting point is the official opening of the Oreneta fountain, in May 1936, a ceremony during which poets and writers gathered together in Viladrau to pay homage of Guerau de Liost, the author of La muntanya d?ametistes, [The mountain of amethysts], a masterpiece on Montseny.
