The year is 1327. Franciscans in a wealthy Italian abbey are suspected of heresy, and Brother William of Baskerville arrives to investigate. When his delicate mission is suddenly overshadowed by seven bizarre deaths, Brother William turns detective. He collects evidence, deciphers secret symbols and coded manuscripts, and digs into the eerie labyrinth of the abbey where extraordinary things are happening under the cover of night. A spectacular popular and critical success, "The Name of the Rose" is not only a narrative of a murder investigation but an astonishing chronicle of the Middle Ages. --This text refers to the Paperback edition.

Umberto Eco (born 5 January 1932) is an Italian medievalist, semiotician, philosopher, literary critic and novelist, best known for his novel The Name of the Rose, an intellectual mystery combining semiotics in fiction, biblical analysis, medieval studies and literary theory. His 1988 novel Foucault's Pendulum has been described as a "thinking person's Da Vinci Code". Eco is President of the Scuola Superiore di Studi Umanistici, University of Bologna. He has also written academic texts, children’s books and many essays. Eco was born in the city of Alessandria in the region of Piedmont. His father, Giulio, was an accountant before the government called upon him to serve in three wars. During World War II, Umberto and his mother, Giovanna, moved to a small village in the Piedmontese mountainside. Eco received a Salesian education, and he has made references to the order and its founder in his works and interviews. His family name is supposedly an acronym of ex caelis oblatus (Latin: a gift from the heavens), which was given to his grandfather (a foundling) by a city official. His father was the son of a family with thirteen children, and urged Umberto to become a lawyer, but he entered the University of Turin in order to take up medieval philosophy and literature, writing his thesis on Thomas Aquinas and earning his BA in philosophy in 1954. During this time, Eco left the Roman Catholic Church after a crisis of faith. After this, Eco worked as a cultural editor for the state broadcasting station Radiotelevisione Italiana (RAI) and also lectured at the University of Turin (1956–64). A group of avant-garde artists—painters, musicians, writers—whom he had befriended at RAI (Gruppo 63) became an important and influential component in Eco's future writing career. This was especially true after the publication of his first book in 1956, Il problema estetico di San Tommaso, which was an extension of his doctoral thesis. This also marked the beginning of his lecturing career at his alma mater. In September 1962, he married Renate Ramge, a German art teacher with whom he has a son and a daughter. He divides his time between an apartment in Milan and a vacation house near Rimini.

论文,慎入。 意大利符号学家翁贝尔托•埃科(Umberto Eco, 1932- )的长篇小说《玫瑰的名字》(Il Nome Della Rosa),是一部可以雅俗共赏的奇书。“俗”的一面:小说围绕14世纪教会内部为争夺一部珍贵历史手稿而连续发生的几起谋杀案而展开情节,神秘的气氛、离奇的死...

对中世纪宗教史了解不够的话,感到英文版真的很难读… 还夹杂大量意大利语和法语。William Weaver翻译很给力。PS:真精彩啊!要列为我最喜欢的小说TOP3了。处处闪耀着思想的火花。超喜欢关于laughter的那几段争论。

“现代性的神学起源”的戏剧化呈现。平安夜在梵蒂冈排队的时候读完了这本书,为今年的阅读旅程画上了句号。

Franciscans相信基督的poverty对教会来说是阻止他们敛财的说辞而被视为异端,皇权却认为敌人的敌人是朋友而笼络他们,神学观点为政治所用,只有Jorge心里想着的都是保护Bible里的至高真理,但William出于不同的interpretation达到了完全不同的结论。爱书与爱真理也不竟然相同,最后落到亚里士多德的诗学上真是有意思。

作者搭起一个侦探小说的架子,装进一本历史小说,一本探讨存在、真理、人性的哲学小说,一个人物结构语言皆精彩纷呈的文本舞台。变态啊,过瘾啊!读者过瘾,作者写起来更是爽到不能自拔吧。

Love every bit of this book. I read it several times and listened to audio book many times. I never grew tired of loving it.
