'Salambó' Summary
En el corazón de la antigua Cartago, durante la Guerra de los Mercenarios, la historia de amor entre Salambó, hija del general Amílcar, y Matho, líder de los mercenarios, se desarrolla en un escenario de violencia y caos. La trama gira en torno al robo del zaïmph, un velo sagrado que envuelve a la diosa Tanit y representa la protección de la ciudad. Matho, en su obsesión por Salambó, decide robar el velo, desencadenando una serie de eventos trágicos que ponen a prueba su amor y su propia existencia. Flaubert, con su característico estilo preciso y detallado, describe con vívidos colores la brutalidad de la guerra, las costumbres y creencias de Cartago, la sed de poder y la fuerza de las pasiones humanas. En el desenlace de la historia, se explora el significado del sacrificio y la inevitabilidad del destino en una sociedad marcada por la violencia y la lucha por el poder.Book Details
