Sobre este artículo
Paperback / softback. New. The Emperor Hadrian writes a valedictory letter to Marcus Aurelius, his future successor. The Emperor meditates on his past, describing his accession, military triumphs, love of poetry and music, and the philosophy that informed his powerful and far-flung rule. This work recreates the life and death of one of the great rulers of the ancient world.
Sinopsis
Memoirs of Hadrian is a novel by the French writer Marguerite Yourcenar about the life and death of Roman Emperor Hadrian. The book was first published in France in French in 1951 as Mémoires d'Hadrien, and was an immediate success, meeting with enormous critical acclaim. The historical Hadrian did write an autobiography, but it has been lost. The book takes the form of a letter to Hadrian's cousin and eventual successor "Mark".
Reseñas
El Nov 10 2014, un lector dijo:
This book was first published in the early 1950s. I bought it because I found a copy published in 1963 that is beautifully made - laid paper, full cloth binding with a vellum spine and I wondered what a copy from 10 years earlier was like. The writing is excellent, a creative approach to the subject.
