Synopsis
In this book, which compiles three of his famous *Italian Chronicles*—*The Cenci*, *The Duchess of Palliano*, and *Vittoria Accoramboni*—, we find the Italian Renaissance in its purest state, just as the author saw it: crime, adultery, torture, conspiracy, ambition, and vengeance. Stendhal narrates it all with the crudeness and precision of a trial, with the indifference of someone who has already seen too much, and with the infinite tenderness and lyricism of a libertine as he witnesses the death of the most beautiful woman in the world.
*En este libro, que recoge tres de sus afamadas* Crónicas italianas—Los Cenci*, La duquesa de Palliano y* Vittoria Accoramboni—*, se encuentra el Renacimiento italiano en estado puro, tal como lo veìa el autor: crìmenes, adulterios, torturas, conspiraciones, ambición, y venganza. Stendhal lo narra todo con la crudeza y precisión de un proceso judicial, con la indiferencia de quien ya ha visto demasiado, y con la ternura infinita y el lirismo del libertino que ve morir a la más hermosa de las mujeres.*
