Abstract

Tina Merlin, the Cassandra of the Vajont: she has always been identified through this definition. Behind it, there is a woman, a unique individual that risks to be lost if we don’t go beyond the signature at the end of her articles. Through her works, her books and especially through her personal archive, we can see the character of a woman distinguished by the engagement and the passion for people, first at all, and the for the mountain, of which she was like a daughter. Reading backlit what have remained, the most precious material arises, it means the particular and unrepeatable story of a person.
