Atra Nox: Minturnae e la notte nera di Caio

ADD TO WISHLIST >

Il giovane Caio, figlio di Lucio Vitruvio Mamurra, il famoso praefectus fabrum di Cesare in Gallia, è stato colpito da un dolore inconsolabile, la perdita del fratello Publio a causa di un male incurabile. Nel corso di uno spettacolo a Minturnae assiste alla morte in scena di un attore. Il desiderio innato di giustizia che lo contraddistingue lo induce a voler dissipare l’alone di mistero che avvolge il caso. Indagare, per Caio, è anche un modo per rinascere. Svelate le prime apparenze, scopre una realtà sempre più inquietante che vede in Minturnae il centro di una trama criminosa. Il nemico, potente e sfuggente, colpisce Caio e chi gli è accanto, ma il giovane Mamurra, animato dallo spirito di Roma, non demorde e con il giusto intuito affronta tenacemente il proprio destino, fino all’epilogo finale.

Ambientata nel 13 a.C. nelle antiche Formiae e Minturnae, odierne Formia, Minturno, SS. Cosma e Damiano e Castelforte, la vicenda si svolge in uno scenario ricostruito fedelmente nei luoghi, nella storia, negli usi e nei costumi, con alcune libertà.

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.
