refimprove date February 2010 For other articles titled The Mountain , see The Mountain disambiguation . The Mountain French language French La Montagne refers in the context of the history of the French Revolution to a political group, whose members, called Montagnards , sat on the highest benches in the Assembly. The term, which was first used during the session of the Legislative Assembly France Legislative Assembly , did not come into general use until 1793 . At the opening of the National Convention the Montagnard group comprised men of very diverse shades of opinion, and such cohesion as it subsequently acquired was due rather to the opposition of its leaders to the Girondist leaders than to any fundamental agreement in philosophy among the Montagnards own leaders. The chief point of distinction was that the Girondists were mainly theorists and thinkers, whereas the Mountain consisted almost entirely of uncompromising men of action. Additionally, Montagnards tended to be more vocal in defence of the lower classes and employed a more moralistic rhetoric than the Girondins. ref Popkin, Jeremy D. 2010 .

Based on autobiographical elements which constitute a kind of encyclopaedic view of Bernhard s world, this book gives a rare insight into the birth of a remarkable literary oeuvre paralleling that of Kafka and of Beckett . In fact, Sophie Wilkins , in her interesting Afterword , compares it to Kafka s short story Description of a Struggle . Written as one sentence, it is a monologue delivered by a court reporter who meets a variety of characters, among whom are a secondary school teacher the only intellectual an inkeeper and various ladies who afford him favours or bully and humiliate him. His only true attachment is to his filthy dog. The dog is a dirty, smelly body detested by the housekeeper who wants him and his owner out , but it s precisely this indubitable physical reality of him that makes him indispensable without it, there s no real life in his life, and therewith no ideas, no literature that means anything.
