EMMANUEL ROIDIS, 1860-65: THE FORMATION OF THE AUTHOR OF POPE JOAN
Abstract
THE ATTEMPT MADE BY MY THESIS WAS TO INVESTIGATE AND PROPOSE AN INTERPRETATION OF THE COURSE FOLLOWED BY EMMANUEL ROIDIS BETWEEN THE TRANSLATION OF CHATEAUBRIAND'S ITINERARY IN 1860 (THE FIRST PUBLISHED TEXT BEARING HIS SIGNATURE) AND THE SYNTHESIS OF HIS NOVEL POPE JOAN, WHICH HAD BEEN ACCOMPLISHED BY THE END OF THE YEAR 1865. THE REORIENTATION AND RADICAL CHANGE OF THE AUTHOR'S IDEOLOGICAL AND AESTHETIC BELIEFS WHICH MARK THESE YEARS, ARE OF GREAT IMPORTANCE AND THEY OFFER A KEY FOR THE INTERPRETATION OF POPE JOAN, AS WELL AS OF THE WHOLE OF ROIDIS' WORK. IN THE COURSE OF MY RESEARCH, THERE HAVE BEEN ALSO DISCOVERED 13 NEW, TOTALLY UNKNOWN, TEXTS WRITTEN BY ROIDIS BETWEEN 1860 AND 1865. THESE TEXTS BEAR REMARKABLE EVIDENCE ON THE LIFE AND WORK OF THE AUTHOR DURING THESE EARLY YEARS OF HIS CAREER.
