Présentation The Priest's Hat Format Relié
- Livre Littérature Générale
Résumé :
The Priest's Hat is a suspenseful, moving, and darkly funny tale loosely based on Count Alessandro Faella's murder of the priest Virgilio Costa in Imola in 1881. Against the background of late nineteenth-century Naples, the novel brings us the meltdown of an aging playboy, Carlo Coriolano, the last baron of a once-wealthy and powerful clan. Il Barone has squandered his inheritance and now can't support his extravagant tastes. He's been banned from his club and depends on his loyal, long-suffering housekeeper for pocket change. And if he doesn't repay an old loan, he'll soon be in jail. His solution is to lure to his crumbling, mortgaged ancestral estate, a greedy old priest, murder him, and then take possession of the priest's considerable riches. Of course, it all goes wrong, and the priest's hat takes us through a mirrored maze of guilt and self-deception as the baron attempts to maintain his equanimity and social position. A precursor of the Italian giallo genre, The Priest's Hat was first published in 1887 in installments. Echoing his contemporaries Dostoyevsky and Dickens, De Marchi intended this novel as an accessible yet literate expos? of contemporary Italian society with its culture of gossip, rumor, and superstition; of powerful gangs and clergy; of misleading new philosophies, a frivolous, inept and corrupt media, and an inequitable justice system. First modern English translation of Il cappello del prete (1894). Introduction and notes. 192 pages.
Biographie:
Emilio De Marchi (Milan, 1851-Milan, 1901) was a prolific novelist, short-story writer, editor, and essayist. In addition to original work, he translated Jean de La Fontaine's Fables from French into Italian (Favole, 1886). He produced several books on children's education and was a philanthropist and advocate for the working class and the poor. In poor health and heartbroken over the death of his young daughter, he died at the age of forty-nine. He was the younger brother of the noted historian of antiquity Attilio De Marchi.
