We take roads for granted. Their importance only appears
to us when they are missing, whether they are actually
missing to reach a place (an exotic region, a mountain,
a monument…), which is then considered as out of
reach; or whether they are momentarily cut off (by a natural
disaster, a strike, protest roadblocks).
And yet there was a time when these thoroughfares didn't
exist.
This text aims at showing their genesis.
