  • "L'anti Robinson Cruso?︠ Un roman dans lequel Eco le linguiste vient prt̊er main forte ̉Eco le romancier. Le hřos est un intellectuel, fils de hobereau pim̌ontais, naugrag ̌en 1643 face ̉une des l̋es de l'archipel des Fidji, qui cherche ̉comprendre le monde. Selon Pierre Lepape, l'auteur a invent ̌une nouvelle forme de roman historique qui trouve ses fondements dans l'histoire culturelle et trac ̌une vaste fresque de l'Europe baroque. Pour le traducteur ce roman-encyclopďie est aussi un roman de formation, d'espionnage et d'amour. [SDM]."

  • ""A travers l'odyssée de Roberto de la Grive, tour à tour guerrier, savant et agent secret, puis naufragé non loin du mythique 180e méridien -celui qui sépare aujourd'hui d'hier- c'est à un carrousel ininterrompu de personnages, d'événements et d'idées que nous sommes conviés."
  • "Wir schreiben das Jahr 1643, und in Europa tobt der Dreissigjährige Krieg. Wider Willen wird Roberto de La Grive zum Entdeckungsreisenden auf der Suche nach dem Nullmeridian, dem zur exakten Navigation notwendigen Fixpunkt der Erde. Ein Orkan spült ihn auf ein verlassen vor den Fidschii-Inseln treibendes Forschungsschiff. Auf diesem schwimmenden Naturalienkabinett findet er einen skurrilen Schicksalsgenossen und viel Zeit, sich die eigene unheilvolle Liebes-, Lebens- und Doppelgängergeschichte zu phantasieren. Historisches Panorama, Liebesgeschichte und Abenteuerroman - Eco erfindet den gewaltigen Kosmos eines ganzen Jahrhunderts neu. "... spannend erzählt, eine Art Polit-Thriller. Es erzählt die Odyssee des Grossen Jahrhunderts: Das Zeitalter der Vernunft. Der Leser, immer wieder verblüfft, ... endet mit Bewunderung." FRANKFURTER ALLGEMEINE ZEITUNG."
  • "After a violent storm in the South Pacific in the year 1643, Roberto della Griva finds himself shipwrecked-on a ship. Swept from the Amaryllis, he has managed to pull himself aboard the Daphne, anchored in the bay of a beautiful island. The ship is fully provisioned, he discovers, but the crew is missing. As Roberto explores the different cabinets in the hold, he remembers chapters from his youth: Ferrante, his imaginary evil brother; the siege of Casale, that meaningless chess move in the Thirty Years' War in which he lost his father and his illusions; and the lessons given him on Reasons of State, fencing, the writing of love letters, and blasphemy. In this fascinating, lyrical tale, Umberto Eco tells of a young dreamer searching for love and meaning; and of a most amazing old Jesuit who, with his clocks and maps, has plumbed the secrets of longitudes, the four moons of Jupiter, and the Flood."
  • "A panoramic historical novel set in the seventeenth century follows a young aristocrat who goes to sea to find love and an old Jesuit with a boundless scientific knowledge."@en
