Synopsis "Hadrian the Seventh"
Hadrian The Seventh is a satirical novel by Frederick Corvo, originally published in 1904. The story follows George Arthur Rose, an unsuccessful writer and former Anglican priest who unexpectedly becomes Pope Hadrian VII. The novel explores themes of power, religion, and individualism, as Hadrian VII seeks to reform the Catholic Church and create a more egalitarian society. Through his witty and irreverent prose, Corvo satirizes the hypocrisy and corruption of the Church, while also offering a critique of modern society and its values. The novel is a biting commentary on the state of European politics and culture at the turn of the 20th century, and remains a classic of English literature.This is a new release of the original 1925 edition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
