Produktbeschreibung
Salammbo is a historical novel written by Gustave Flaubert and first published in 1885. Set in ancient Carthage during the third century BC, the story follows the beautiful and mysterious priestess Salammbo, who becomes entangled in a political and military conflict between Carthage and its mercenaries, the Mercenaries of the Sacred Band.The novel is rich in historical detail and vivid descriptions of the ancient world, including the city of Carthage itself, its customs and rituals, and the brutal warfare of the time. Flaubert's prose is highly stylized and poetic, with a focus on sensory detail and emotional intensity.Salammbo is a complex and enigmatic character, at once sensual and spiritual, and her story is one of love, betrayal, and sacrifice. The novel explores themes of power, religion, and the nature of desire, and is considered one of Flaubert's greatest works.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
