Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Colomba' is a gripping masterpiece of 19th-century literature that delves into the dark and complex world of the Corsican vendetta. Set against the rugged, untamed landscapes of the Mediterranean, the story centers on the fierce and uncompromising Colomba della Rebbia, a young woman driven by a singular purpose: to avenge the murder of her father. When her brother, Orso, returns to Corsica after serving as an officer in the French army, he brings with him modern ideals of justice and law that clash violently with the ancient, bloody traditions of his homeland.As Colomba exerts her powerful influence to draw her brother into a cycle of ancestral violence, the narrative explores the profound tension between civilization and primal honor. This work is celebrated for its psychological depth, its vivid depiction of local customs, and its tight, dramatic structure. 'Colomba' remains an essential example of Romantic realism, offering a fascinating look at the cultural identity of Corsica and the tragic weight of family legacy.
