Summary "Diary And Notes Of Horace Templeton, Esq. Volume I (of II)" by Charles James Lever is a novel written in the mid-19th century. This narrative follows Horace Templeton, a troubled traveler whose journey to Italy is both a literal voyage and a metaphorical exploration of life and death amidst the backdrop of his personal reflections and past experiences." The work delves into themes of health, mortality, and social critique, allowing readers to engage with Templeton's inner thoughts as he grapples with the fragility of life. "The opening of the novel introduces Horace Templeton at the Hôtel des Princes in Paris, where he reflects on his impending journey to Italy, prescribed by his doctors due to his declining health. He muses on the irony of travelers often seeking to escape death, noting how he and many others may be endowing such journeys with a tragic purpose. The narrative transitions to his historical reflections on his life as a young attaché in Vienna, where he first encountered love and loss, particularly through his unrequited feelings for Lady Blanche Newington. As he recounts his experiences, Templeton's keen observations about society and his interactions with notable characters, including his rival Count de Favancourt, set the tone for a story rich in both humor and poignant introspection."
