Descripción editorial
Memoirs of Hadrian by Marguerite Yourcenar is a profound and introspective novel that takes the form of a fictional autobiography of the Roman Emperor Hadrian. Written in the first person, the book offers a deeply personal exploration of Hadrian's thoughts, emotions, and reflections on his life, reign, and the nature of power. Through elegant and contemplative prose, Yourcenar captures the essence of Hadrian's character, his philosophical musings, and his relationships, blending historical accuracy with imaginative insight. The novel not only provides a vivid portrayal of one of Rome's most enlightened rulers but also serves as a meditation on the human condition, mortality, and the passage of time.
