Albert Frederick Mummery

Japanese: ママリー - ままりー（英語表記）Albert Frederick Mummery

1855‐95
British mountaineer. His family business was leather tanning, but he also devoted himself to the study of economics. From around 1871, he attempted difficult climbs such as the Zmut Ridge of the Matterhorn, the west face of the Aiguille Belt, and the Grépons. Unlike climbers who only aimed for the summit, he tried to climb more difficult routes in order to reach the limits of his mind and body. This later became known as Mamanism, and became a new trend among mountaineers, exerting a great influence on many. In 1888, he was the first to ascend Dhikhtau in the Caucasus, and in 1895, he went missing on the Diamirai Glacier on Nanga Parbat in the Himalayas.

1855‐95
イギリスの登山家。家業は革なめしであったが，経済学の研究にはげんだ。1871年ころからマッターホルンのツムット稜，エギーユ･ベルト西面，グレポンなど困難な登山を行い，頂上のみをめざす登山とちがって，より困難なルートから心身の極限を求めて登るということを心がけた。後にこれはママリズムとして，登山家たちの間の新しい思潮となり，多くの影響を与えた。1888年カフカスのディフタウ初登などを行い，95年ヒマラヤのナンガ･パルバットのディアミライ氷河で行方不明となった。
