Crimen Del Padre Amaro

Crimen del Padre Amaro

by José Maria de Eça de Queirós

El crimen del padre Amaro es una novela de Eça de Queirós que explora la hipocresía y la corrupción dentro de la Iglesia Católica en Portugal durante el siglo XIX. La historia se centra en el joven sacerdote Amaro, quien llega a un pueblo rural para servir como cura. Allí se ve atraído por una joven llamada Amélia, con quien tiene una relación apasionada. Sin embargo, su amor está prohibido y Amaro se ve atrapado en un triángulo amoroso y moralmente complejo. La novela ofrece una crítica aguda de las prácticas religiosas y sociales de la época, mostrando cómo la Iglesia se convierte en un instrumento de poder y control, mientras que la moralidad y la fe personal se ven socavadas.
