Viac o knihe
Exploring the complex interplay of vendetta and banditry in nineteenth-century Corsica, this study delves into historical accounts and judicial records to illuminate long-standing feuds, including one that inspired Merimee's Colomba. It contextualizes these conflicts within the competition for resources in an agro-pastoral society, highlighting local attitudes toward death that contrast with official Christianity. The book also examines how the integration of Corsica into a modern state affected its traditional practices and systems of justice.
