Synopsis "Die Gräfin Charny (in German)"

20 Jahre ist es her, dass Giuseppe Balsamo in einer Höhle des Donnerberges im Kreise seiner Maurerbrüder aussprach, was keiner damals für möglich hielt: "Ich fordere 20 Jahre, um eine Welt zu vernichten und eine neue auszubauen. 20 Jahre, nicht um einem Monarchen, sondern um die ganze Monarchie zu zerstören. In 20 Jahren, das sind 20 Sekunden der Ewigkeit, sehen wir uns wieder. Dann urteilt selbst." Und nun hat die Revolution wahrhaftig ihren Einzug in Frankreich gehalten, in deren Wirren sich, vor dem fantastischen aber blutroten Horizont der historischen Wirklichkeit, das Schicksal der Helden aus den Memoiren eines Arztes vollenden wird. Alexandre Dumas (1802-1870) war ein französischer Schriftsteller. Heute ist er vor allem durch seine zu Klassikern gewordenen Historienromane bekannt, etwa Die drei Musketiere und Der Graf von Monte Christo.

Alexandre Dumas is one of the most prolific and popular authors from France. He was born in 1802 in the city of Villers-Cotterets, and soon moved to Paris to work as a secretary for the Duke of Orléans. There, he completed his education on his own and began to take an interest in writing.
He started by writing plays, and then moved on to poems and long stories. However, his real success did not come until 1844, the year he released the work that would catapult him to fame: The Three Musketeers. The serial publication of this novel brought him a huge sum of money, but it also meant countless hours of work, many collaborators, and the production of up to eighty installments to meet the growing public demand.
After the publication of The Three Musketeers and The Count of Monte Cristo, Dumas amassed a great fortune. However, his hedonistic nature led him to squander all he had earned and he soon found himself forced to exile in Belgium to escape his French creditors.
The Count of Monte Cristo, the pinnacle of the author's narrative, is considered one of the greatest adventure novels of all time.
