| Summary | "Semiramide: Racconto babilonese" by Anton Giulio Barrili is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. The story is set in ancient Babylon and centers around the enigmatic figure of Semiramide, a powerful queen ruling over a majestic city that is steeped in grandeur and rich cultural traditions. The narrative promises to explore themes of beauty, power, and destiny against the backdrop of Babylonian civilization. The opening of the book introduces Babylon as a flourishing kingdom on the banks of the Euphrates, highlighting its vast grandeur, constructed under the watchful eye of its goddess, Militta. As the narrative unfolds, we meet Ara, the young king of Armenia, who approaches the city with mixed feelings of admiration and sadness. His journey brings him before Semiramide's impressive rule as he navigates through the vivid landscape and bustling life of Babylon. Amidst street festivities and temple rites, Ara becomes enchanted by the mysterious and beautiful woman he encounters, which hints at a significant romantic subplot amidst the historical grandeur of the setting. This early portion sets the stage for a tale filled with allure and intrigue, drawing readers into the depths of love and power in ancient times. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
