Omschrijving

Salammbo is a historical novel by Gustave Flaubert, published in 1862. The story is set in ancient Carthage during the third century BC, and follows the beautiful priestess Salammbo as she becomes embroiled in a dangerous political and religious conflict.Salammbo is the daughter of Hamilcar, a powerful Carthaginian general. She is chosen to be the high priestess of the goddess Tanit, and her beauty and grace make her a beloved figure in the city. However, Carthage is on the brink of war with Rome, and Salammbo finds herself caught between the conflicting interests of her father, the Carthaginian senate, and the mercenaries who are hired to fight for Carthage.As the conflict intensifies, Salammbo becomes entangled in a web of intrigue and betrayal. She falls in love with a young mercenary named Matho, but their relationship is threatened by the machinations of Hamilcar and the Carthaginian senate. Meanwhile, the mercenaries, led by the ruthless Spendius, plot to overthrow Carthage and seize its wealth for themselves.Salammbo is a vivid and evocative portrayal of ancient Carthage, with Flaubert's meticulous attention to detail bringing the city to life. The novel is also notable for its exploration of themes such as power, desire, and the corrupting influence of wealth. With its gripping plot and richly drawn characters, Salammbo remains a classic of historical fiction.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
