"This other author in whom I find a new note, and one of great power, is Merejkowski, who is, if I mistake not, young and with his career still before him. "The Forerunner" and "The Death of the Gods" are the only two books of his which I have been able to obtain, but the pictures of Renaissance Italy in the one, and of declining Rome in the other, are in my opinion among the masterpieces of fiction." --Through the Magic Door, pg. 229 näyttää 2/2 ei arvosteluja | lisää arvostelu

Part I unfolds not so much through plot or even activity as through a panorama. Characters are introduced, then left again. Encounters and conversations relayed, but not immediately clear in their significance. In this way, the themes are gathered and the character of Julian built up. It becomes clear that Julian has a destiny that will shape the Roman empire, outcast though he is, and that his fixation with spirit and beauty and truth will play a role. Part II is a more connected narrative, both in terms of Julian's path through empire and history, and in the recurring actions of side characters both minor and major. The end result is a complex yet efficiently told story.
Overall, quite impressive. I'm left wondering how accurate is Merejkowski's take on Roman customs, Attic Greek architecture and society, the role of Christianity in the empire pre-, intra-, and post-Julian, and the various military campaigns. If either of the remaining two volumes in the trilogy approach this standard, they'll be well worth the time to read. ( )
