In XIV century in the inscription over the gates of hell was introduced to the cultural memory of mankind, invoking to give up hope before entering into any disastrous experience. But there is something more profound for the modern man than a tragic abyss, one of the symbols of which will always remain Chornobyl. That is why final words of Dante's "Inferno" today are no less important – pass through the Catastrophe :… to rebehold the stars", and to understand – "trouble" can never be the last word about the man.
