About the Book

The first of Stendhal s novellas that comprise his" Italian Chronicles," this story is considered a literary gem. Stendhal begins with a prologue of sorts about the sixteenth century and the state of mind of the people of Florence, but he soon begins to weave a tale about an impossible love between a well-intentioned bandit named Julio Branciforte and a noble young lady, the beautiful Elena Campireali. The tale slowly acquires psychological depth and transforms from the picturesque into the dramatic: the characters make mistakes and are selfish and extremely cruel, all of which is justified in the name of that disproportionate feeling that was known as love in Renaissance Italy."La primera de las novelas cortas que conforman las "Cronicas italianas" de Stendhal, esta historia es considerada un joya literaria. Stendhal arranca con una suerte de prologo sobre el siglo XVI y la mentalidad de los florentinos, pero pronto nos comienza a narrar un amor imposible entre un bandido bueno llamado Julio Branciforte y una joven noble, la bella Elena Campireali. Poco a poco la historia adquiere profundidad psicologica y pasa de lo pintoresco a lo dramatico: los personajes cometen errores y son egoistas y extremadamente crueles, todo lo cual se justifica en nombre de ese sentimiento desproporcionado que es el amor en la Italia renacentista.""
