Description
Esta fascinante historia de asesinato, superstición, política religiosa y drama en un monasterio medieval fue una de las novelas más llamativas de la década de 1980. El nombre de la rosa es una historia emocionante enriquecida con detalles de época y mezclada con alusiones irónicas a personajes ficticios, el más llamativo de los cuales es el fraile franciscano William de Baskerville, que muestra muchas características de Sherlock Holmes. Aunque mira el pasado a través de una lente posmoderna, Eco catapulta a sus lectores al oscuro mundo medieval mientras el hermano William intenta descubrir por qué la gente muere de manera inexplicable y desagradable en el monasterio. Hay algo que no está del todo bien dentro de la biblioteca que es el orgullo del establecimiento... El anciano Adso, que en ese momento era un novato impresionable, cuenta la historia.
Description
This hugely engaging story of murder, superstition, religious politics and drama in a medieval monastery was one of the most striking novels to appear in the 1980s. The Name of the Rose is a thrilling story enriched with period detail and laced with tongue-in-cheek allusions to fictional characters, the most striking of which is the Franciscan friar William of Baskerville, who displays many characteristics of Sherlock Holmes. Although he looks at the past through a postmodern lens, Eco catapults his readers into the dark medieval world as Brother William tries to discover why people are dying inexplicably and nastily in the monastery. There is something not altogether right within the library that is the pride of the establishment... The old man Adso, who was an impressionable novice at the time, tells the story.
