E-text prepared by Delphine Lettau "Beatrice" by Paul Heyse is a novel written during the late 19th century. The story revolves around the experiences and relationships of a group of friends, particularly focusing on the character Amadeo, who becomes infatuated with a young woman named Beatrice, set against the backdrop of Italian society and the complexities of love and personal duty. The opening of the narrative introduces us to three friends gathered in a garden house, reminiscing about their memories and engaging in deep philosophical discussions that hint at underlying tensions in their relationships. One of the friends, Amadeo, is particularly engrossed in the concept of tragedy in literature, leading to a profound reflection on individualism and societal conventions. As the evening unfolds, it becomes evident that a new layer of intensity is drawn in with the revelation of past secrets and wounds, particularly concerning Amadeo's attraction to Beatrice. The chapter sets the stage for the exploration of love and destiny, while planting the seeds of conflict and the characters' significant backstories.
