Summary "The Triumph of Death" by Gabriele D'Annunzio is a novel written in the late 19th century. This work explores themes of love, despair, and the existential anxiety that accompanies human relationships. The narrative centers on the tumultuous relationship between the main characters, George and Hippolyte, as they grapple with their affection, jealousy, and fears of betrayal against the backdrop of life's transient nature. The opening of "The Triumph of Death" introduces readers to a dramatic scene where George and Hippolyte encounter onlookers at a suicide scene, setting a tone of melancholy and introspection. As they leave, their conversation reveals the complexities of their romantic relationship, punctuated by suspicions, fears of emotional distance, and a palpable tension. The setting shifts between their reflections on love to George's internal struggles with jealousy and existential dread. This opening effectively establishes the emotional depth and psychological richness of the characters while foreshadowing the themes of mortality and the burden of passionate love that will permeate the ensuing narrative.
