Produktbeschreibung
"The Marble Faun," Nathaniel Hawthorne's final completed novel, is a compelling exploration of art, sin, and redemption set against the backdrop of 19th-century Italy. Also known as "Transformation," the story follows the experiences of four American artists-Hilda, Kenyon, Miriam, and the mysterious Donatello-as their lives become entangled with ancient Roman mysteries and personal tragedies. As they navigate the picturesque landscapes and storied ruins of Rome, their idyllic existence is shattered by a sudden act of violence, forcing each character to confront their own moral compass. Donatello, in particular, undergoes a profound transformation, echoing the mythological faun he resembles. Hawthorne masterfully blends elements of romance, mystery, and allegory, creating a rich and atmospheric tale that delves into the complexities of human nature and the burden of the past. "The Marble Faun" remains a classic example of American Romanticism, celebrated for its evocative prose and enduring exploration of the themes of guilt, innocence, and the transformative power of art.
