The Name of the Rose , needless to say, is a great classic of Italian literature of which everything and perhaps too much has been done, taken or written. I've always considered a busy and challenging book, not because of the amount ultimately anything but an exaggeration, as the depth of the themes drawn within the book itself in an abbey of monks corrupt and lustful as the outside world. That sacred place in fact may well be attributed to the generality of human beings, the essence of her spirit as well as of his flesh. What happens there is what happens in the world.
The reading is smooth in almost all respects and suspense that makes reading a detective story is certainly not comparable to other - even for someone like me, has never loved novels in general. The environments are described with attention to detail, as well as the monks and their actions are chained together in a continuous and compelling. But talking
de The Name of the Rose only as a novel yellow does not make fully merit. A reader not only stuck to the story in these pages is bread for his teeth and these are, in my opinion, the most interesting parts: everything that goes beyond a bit 'from the narrative is an essential and amazing coverage that gives color to the book , reality and the mystery that feeds a yellow.
The description of the monsters depicted on the door that attracts the attention of Adso; curiosity in heretical sects and Dolcinians primarily Eco explains that the reader empathize with and without sparing the wait, the situation of medieval ecclesiastical and bitter contest between spiritual and temporal power, the conclusion can not occur, as mentioned, the overlap the two powers, the same maze with its particular map.
Throughout the reading one thing is clear: being inside a book, then that would be the thing that most interested in William of Baskerville. "A book about books" as suggested by the writer himself, a journey through knowledge, a struggle between this and the mere repetition that will end in a tragic, tragic as will the distance that separates these two seemingly worlds.
"And the king are the merchants. And their weapon is money. Money has a function, in Italy, other than in your country or mine. Everywhere circulating money, but most of his life is still dominated and controlled by the exchange of goods, chickens or sheaves of grain, or a sickle, or a wagon, and the money used to buy those goods. I noticed that in Italian cities, however, the assets are used to obtain money. And the priests, and bishops, and even the religious orders, have to deal with money. "
" The books are not made to believe, but to be subject to investigation . Faced with a book we should not ask what it says but what it means, that the old idea commentators of the sacred books were clear. "
"" It was the largest library in Christendom, "William said. "Now," he added, "the Antichrist is really close because no wisdom will make him more as a barrier. On the other hand we have seen the face tonight."
" In her face ravaged by hatred for philosophy, for the first time I saw the portrait of the Antichrist, who is not from the tribe of Judah as they want their listings, or from a distant land. The Antichrist can be born from piety itself, the excessive love of God or of truth, as the heretic is born from the saint and the possessed from the seer. Themes, Adso, the prophets and those prepared to die for the truth, which usually die a lot with their fans, often before them, sometimes in their place. "
