Translation of second half of: Sur la pierre blanche. Tapio Riikonen "Valkoisella kivellä" by Anatole France is a novel written in the early 20th century. The narrative appears to explore themes of imperialism, war, and the potential for world peace through the lens of social critique and philosophical musings. The interactions among the characters encapsulate various perspectives on societal change and historical context. The opening of the book sets the scene in a restaurant in Rome during a gathering of five friends discussing existential and societal themes. Among them are Josephin Leclerc, a diplomat; Doctor Goubin, a historian; and Nicole Langelier, who express their thoughts on future societal developments and the implications of colonial wars. Their conversation delves into the nature of human conflict, drawing parallels with historical events while contemplating a future where cooperation and understanding might eclipse militarism, thus foreshadowing debates about social structures and collective human destiny. The dialogue reflects on the complex realities of civilization, including the burdens of imperialism and the hope for an evolved global community.
