Dekameron (1. rész) by Mór Jókai
"Dekameron (1. rész)" by Mór Jókai is a collection of novellas written in the late 19th century. The work explores the narratives of characters set against historical backdrops, delving into their experiences and emotions in the context of Hungarian history. Through its luxuriant prose, it portrays the lives of notable figures and the common folk of Esztergom, capturing the vibrant culture and the impending threats of their era. The opening of thisvolume introduces readers to an intriguing blend of history and character reflection, primarily focusing on the past glories and decadence of Esztergom. The narrator, who possesses the skull of Karadzim khán, reflects upon the historical significance and beauty of the city while longing for its former splendor. The text paints a vivid picture of a bustling town filled with diverse cultures, commerce, and the enchanting beauty of women, yet it ominously foreshadows the devastating arrival of the Tatars. Through the character of Berta, the belle of the town, the narrative hints at impending tragedy as the threat of invasion looms, underscoring themes of beauty, loss, and resilience amidst turmoil.
