Press review on Notre Dame: inner tremors

The flames are deleted, the horror is more large. Worldwide, the daily Newspapers write about the Brand of Notre Dame. Also in 100 years we will still speak of it. Notre Dame will rise again"".

media around the world have reacted with great dismay at the serious fire in the Paris Cathedral of Notre-Dame.

So the conservative Paris newspaper, Le Figaro : "Notre-Dame is inextricably linked with the history of France writes. In the collective memory of the great hours of the Nation, have dug in: Royal weddings, Speeches, the coronation of Napoleon, and the Te Deum of victory of 1945 (...). This masterpiece in the heart of Paris, has witnessed wars and looting. But never the Cathedral has suffered a lack of conformity on such a scale, never have been by a spectacular fire destroyed it. The emotion is immense".

And the New York Times said: "The fire comes long after other major shocks to Paris, including the Seine-high water in the past year, and the terrorist attacks in 2015. In his speech to the Nation, Mister Macron described what Paris feel now, as a "trembl ment intérieur" - an inner quake. This is an accurate description of the rate of our sense of Emptiness and loss.

in Addition, given the significant damage, a shared sadness and disappointment that we have failed as a civilization to be the Watchdog for something priceless. In a hundred years people will still speak from the fire, 2019."

"Paris will survive this"

Significantly more optimistic is the " Guardian" : "Notre writing Dame will rise again. Paris will survive this, as it already has so much else survived. And France is back. But, the traumatic consequences of what the French way of life was done in the week of Easter 2019, in Paris, cannot simply be dismissed.

The self-confidence of a city, a Nation, a culture, of an entire continent has been dealt a blow. This terrible fire event is not an event that should be downplayed or trivialised. How stupid it is but in a Moment like this appears to do so, we're not all Europeans. In France's hour of grief we stand at his side. And we will never turn away."

"As if it were a living creature"

And the Italian newspaper Corriere della Sera commented: "Notre-Dame is not only a Symbol of Christianity and of the French history. It is not an isolated building, not a simple tourist attraction (...). The Cathedral is part of the city (...).

"De Standaard" from Brussels, writes: "If the flames are deleted, there will be an investigation to answer all outstanding questions. How could this happen? Who was careless? It was a simple short circuit? There were no sprinkler systems? Why wasn't the fire Department be faster? There was plenty of fire-extinguishing systems, to be with a fire of this magnitude done?

Maybe there are not satisfactory answers, but maybe. We will then, after the name of the search that may have made a mistake. The proverbial Scapegoats. Perhaps layoffs will follow, fines, penalties. Maybe, but maybe not."
