The Betrothed: From The Italian Of Alessandro Manzoni This book is a result of an effort made by us towards making a contribution to the preservation and repair of original classic literature. In an attempt to preserve, improve and recreate the original content, we have worked towards: 1. Type-setting & Reformatting: The complete work has been re-designed via professional layout, formatting and type-setting tools to re-create the same edition with rich typography, graphics, high quality images, and table elements, giving our readers the feel of holding a 'fresh and newly' reprinted and/or revised edition, as opposed to other scanned & printed (Optical Character Recognition - OCR) reproductions. 2. Correction of imperfections: As the work was re-created from the scratch, therefore, it was vetted to rectify certain conventional norms with regard to typographical mistakes, hyphenations, punctuations, blurred images, missing content/pages, and/or other related subject matters, upon our consideration. Every attempt was made to rectify the imperfections related to omitted constructs in the original edition via other references. However, a few of such imperfections which could not be rectified due to intentional\unintentional omission of content in the original edition, were inherited and preserved from the original work to maintain the authenticity and construct, relevant to the work. We believe that this work holds historical, cultural and/or intellectual importance in the literary works community, therefore despite the oddities, we accounted the work for print as a part of our continuing effort towards preservation of literary work and our contribution towards the development of the society as a whole, driven by our beliefs. We are grateful to our readers for putting their faith in us and accepting our imperfections with regard to preservation of the historical content. HAPPY READING!

Autorenporträt

Alessandro Francesco Tommaso Antonio Manzoni was an influential Italian poet, novelist, and philosopher, widely regarded for his contribution to Italian literature. Born on March 7, 1785, in Milan, Italy, Manzoni is best known for his novel The Betrothed (I Promessi Sposi), a work often considered one of the most important masterpieces of world literature. His life was marked by personal and intellectual struggles, and he went through significant philosophical and religious transformations, which deeply influenced his writing. Manzoni's early exposure to literature was shaped by his mother, Giulia Beccaria, and his father, Pietro Manzoni, both of whom had notable intellectual backgrounds. In his youth, Manzoni moved to Paris and became acquainted with the literary and philosophical currents of the time, particularly Romanticism. His works often reflect themes of faith, social justice, and human struggle, addressing the complex dynamics of Italian society. Throughout his life, Manzoni was married twice first to Henriette Blondel, with whom he had children, and later to Teresa Borri. He passed away on May 22, 1873, in Milan, leaving behind a legacy that profoundly impacted Italian literature and thought.
