Description

Volume 81 of the "Open Books World Literature" series, a collection that reimagines classics with a fresh, youthful face. It introduces a diverse range of works, including representative masterpieces by literary giants, monumental works in genre literature such as mystery, fantasy, and science fiction, and even Korean classic literature. It is not limited to novels but encompasses poetry, travelogues, documentary literature, and humanities writings. It presents a fresh translation that is faithful to the original text, and includes detailed commentary on the works and chronologies of the authors. Furthermore, it utilizes the traditional saddle stitching method to prevent pages from falling out and features a lightweight yet sturdy hardcover binding. Volume 2 of Umberto Eco's *The Name of the Rose*, known as the finest introduction to medieval monastic life and already established as a must-read for all seminarians in Korea (regardless of Catholicism or Protestantism). Translated into major languages worldwide and becoming a bestseller in every country, it is the most talked-about work of this century. In 1327, William, an English monk, arrives at a monastery in Italy with his attendant, Adso, on a certain mission. In the monastery, a horrific series of murders beyond imagination unfolds exactly as prophesied in the Book of Apocalypse, and the book holding the key to the case vanishes like smoke before their eyes. William, having finally deciphered the code, witnesses the true nature of the fanaticism dominating the monastery…

I'll make sure to read it carefully.

A mystery novel that best deserves the tag "best." While recent books are fun, books published before 2000 and in the early 2000s definitely have a different depth.

I saw the movie first. It's fun to compare.

The Name of the Rose (Vol. 2) by Umberto Eco | Translated by Lee Yoon-ki | Published by Open Books Trying to recall, *The Name of the Rose* is remembered as a book that was widely read and quite popular when it was first published. *The Name of the Rose* remains beloved despite undergoing repeated revisions while maintaining the same concept for its cover illustrations. Since the first revised edition was released in 1992, it must have been around that time when I first read *The Name of the

Although I had briefly described Malachia's unimpressive appearance earlier, his face, revealed by the faint lamplight that night, was so hideous that it could be said to be death itself rather than the face of a dead person. (...) A black tongue began to move within Malachia's teeth. Master reached under Malachia's armpits, helped him sit up, and wiped the sweat from his forehead. Malachia seemed to feel Master's touch. However, he did not appear to recognize Master. With trembling hands,

I knew all too well the passage from the *Book of Revelation* that Master was reciting. "Master, then is it the sound of the fourth trumpet?" "Yes, the first was hail, followed by blood, and then water... This time it is a star... If this is true, we must re-examine everything from the beginning. The culprit did not strike with whatever he caught, but committed murder according to a pre-established plan... Even so, a human being who recites the *Book of Revelation* point by point and commits

"Berengario certainly stopped by my dispensary before going to the baths." "How do you know that?" the Master asked. Several monks, intrigued by the conversation between the Master and Severino, approached us. Severino looked at them and lowered his voice further. "You said that he... must have had something, didn't you? That is correct... There is a book in my dispensary that I haven't seen before. Of course, it is not mine; it is a strange book." "That must be correct. Bring it here

"It seems a third figure has emerged as a subject of our investigation. I mean that there might be a professional suspect who knows the true nature of that rare, deadly poison you possessed better than that apprentice. Has anyone else heard about the poison?" "I honestly cannot recall. Of course, I must have told the Headmaster. After all, we need his permission to store the poison in this dispensary. And I probably told a few others, perhaps people from the library as well. I once sought the

"Brother William... I am terrified. They killed Malachia. Now, I am the only one who knows the secret of that book. Furthermore, that gang of Italians hates me." (Page 744) Benno speaks to Brother William with trembling lips. However, William soon scolds him... The brother says that if the book in question had not been handed to Malachia in the first place, he would not have died... But what about Benno? Benno must have seen the book too, yet he is perfectly fine. He says that every page of the

How can He mediate for us? According to the Pope's logic, wouldn't Saint Francis be waiting for the Day of Judgment somewhere without ever having met God? Page 565 | Satisfying. Master's remark on Michele's words as everyone responded with "Amen"~ Haha. Are all the clergy in the world, or rather those working for the will of Heaven, truly righteous people? Perhaps we are blinded by that facade and cannot see the dark intentions hidden within. Jesus also warned. He said that those who outwardly
