Madrid, 1913: Madrid: Miguel de Unamuno published his "The Tragic Sense of Life in Men and Nations". Concerning the fact of mortality, Unamuno finds that Reason cannot console him regarding the fact of death. The awareness of the omnipresent mortality all around us creates a tragic sense for all life. To find consolation outside of Faith is impossible. As for faith in ourselves, Unamuno said: "One who has faith in himself has no need for others to have faith in him."
