Produktbeschreibung

"Ashamed and traumatized by way of a forbidden love affair, ABBÉ MOURET'S TRANSGRESSION, penned through Émile Zola, unfolds within the secluded confines of a provincial French seminary. This novel, a part of Zola's "Rougon-Macquart" series, revolves around the conflicted existence of François Mouret, a young priest. He falls prey to the repressive environment of the seminary and succumbs to a forbidden passion for a fellow servant, Albine. Their clandestine courting blossoms amidst a lush, idyllic lawn, symbolizing nature's defiance against the group's strict moral code. As the story progresses, Mouret's transgressions intensify, culminating in a fervent include of sensual pleasures and a rejection of his religious calling. Zola explores the human psyche's complexities, delving deep into the outcomes of suppressing one's goals and the charm of surrendering to the primal instincts. The novel serves as an effective commentary on the war among the natural, instinctual self and the oppressive constraints of societal norms and religion. In ABBÉ MOURET'S TRANSGRESSION, Émile Zola masterfully combines vivid imagery with a profound exploration of human goals and their outcomes, imparting readers a concept-upsetting and fascinating narrative that challenges traditional morality and sheds mild on the darker corners of the human soul."
