Softcover. Zustand: Fair. Deutlicher Riss. SECRECY AND SILENCE are second nature to Marcello Clerici, the hero of The Conformist, a book which made Alberto Moravia one of the world's most read postwar writers. Clerici is a man with everything under control - a wife who loves him, colleagues who respect him, the hidden power that comes with his secret work for the Italian political police during the Mussolini years. But then he is assigned to kill his former professor, now in exile, to demonstrate his loyalty to the Fascist state, and falls in love with a strange, compelling woman; his life is torn open - and with it the corrupt heart of Fascism. Moravia equates the rise of Italian Fascism with the psychological needs of his protagonist for whom conformity becomes an obsession in a life that has included parental neglect, an oddly self-conscious desire to engage in cruel acts, and a type of male beauty which, to Clerici's great distress, other men find attractive. "Moravia brings to light the devil in the flesh and in the psyche." - - The Atlantic Monthly. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers cad5326f-2eef-4bdf-82c5-24bcedb791e3

Tapa blanda. Zustand: Bien. Idioma: inglés Traducción: Angus Davidson Páginas: 301 . El conformista es un alegato en contra de los mecanismos del Estado totalitario. Una de las novelas más atrevidas y actuales de Alberto Moravia. El conformista, publicada por primera vez en 1951 es, en su superficie, el retrato de un personaje de la Italia de Mussolini y de la sociedad en la que lucha por integrarse. Pero bajo este trasfondo histórico subyace una idea más ambiciosa: intentar explicar un comportamiento moral característico de nuestro tiempo, el conformismo, un deseo de confundirse en la masa y no destacar aun a costa de perder la libertad individual.
