Hardcover. Etat : new. Hardcover. "The Relic" is a biting satirical novel by the master of Portuguese realism, Eca de QueirA3s. The story follows the exploits of Teodorico Raposo, a libertine living a double life in Lisbon. To secure a vast inheritance from his fanatically pious and wealthy aunt, Dona PatrocA-nio, Teodorico must maintain an elaborate facade of extreme religious devotion. His quest for favor leads him on an arduous pilgrimage to the Holy Land, where he hopes to acquire a miraculous relic that will seal his status as her sole heir.Combining elements of a picaresque journey with sharp social critique, the work explores the profound tension between genuine faith and performative piety. As Teodorico navigates the landscapes of Egypt and Palestine, QueirA3s employs his signature wit to lampoon the religious and social conventions of the late nineteenth century. "The Relic" remains a landmark of European literature, celebrated for its vivid prose, psychological depth, and its daring exploration of the sacred and the profane. It is a masterful study of human hypocrisy and the lengths to which one will go for material gain.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
