Summary "Memorie di Giuda, vol. I" by Ferdinando Petruccelli della Gattina is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. The narrative is set during the time of Roman rule in Judea, particularly focusing on the events surrounding the figure of Jesus and the tensions among the Jewish populace. The book delves into themes of political intrigue, faith, and rebellion, featuring characters such as Bar Abbas and Menahem, who are entangled in a plot against the Roman authority. The opening of "Memorie di Giuda" immerses the reader in a vivid portrayal of Jerusalem during the Feast of Tabernacles, with the city bustling with visitors from all walks of life. We are introduced to a group of conspirators, including Jewish Sadducees and Essenes, who gather with a sense of urgency to discuss a grave undertaking: the assassination of the Roman governor, Pontius Pilate. As they await the arrival of their comrades, the atmosphere is charged with conflicting emotions and anticipations of the impending violence. The narrative sets the stage for a tale of betrayal and the heavy toll of political dissent against the backdrop of an era ripe with religious fervor. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
