Produktinformationen zu „The History Of The Caliph Vathek (ePub)“
The Gothic book "The History of Caliph Vathek" was written by William Beckford. The narrative follows the adventures of Caliph Vathek, the ninth caliph of the Abassides, as he succumbs to his unquenchable need for knowledge and power. Caliph Vathek enters a realm of darkness and evil after striking a deal with the devil because of his desire. Vathek sets out on a quest for forbidden knowledge and engages in illicit pleasures under the direction of his evil mother Carathis. He runs across strange creatures, sees unsettling scenery, and experiences horrific happenings while traveling. Vathek's deeds cause agony for others as his corruption deepens and his ambition for power increases. Vathek, however, finds himself caught in a cycle of damnation from which there seems to be no escape despite his unrelenting desire of power. "The History of Caliph Vathek" is renowned for its evocative descriptions, moody locations, and treatment of topics like ambition, pride, and the effects of unrestrained aspirations. It is regarded as one of the first works of Gothic literature and has inspired other pieces in the genre.
