"The Rebels" is a sweeping historical epic that plunges readers into the heart of early nineteenth-century Italy, a land simmering with the fire of revolution. Set against the backdrop of the secretive Carbonari movement, Alfred Neumann's masterwork explores the high-stakes world of political conspiracy and the relentless pursuit of national unification. The narrative follows the intricate lives of those dedicated to overthrowing tyranny, blending clandestine meetings and daring plots with the deep personal sacrifices demanded by a life of rebellion. At its core, the novel is a profound examination of the tension between individual ideology and the collective struggle for freedom. Neumann brilliantly captures the atmospheric tension of an era defined by the Risorgimento, where every shadow hides a secret and every loyalty is tested. Through rich characterization and a meticulously researched setting, the work portrays the emotional and physical toll of the fight for liberty against oppressive regimes. A significant contribution to twentieth-century historical fiction, "The Rebels" remains a compelling study of power, passion, and the revolutionary spirit. Its portrayal of the struggle for justice resonates with timeless themes of sacrifice and political awakening, making it an essential read for those interested in European history, secret societies, and dramatic political narratives.

Seller's Description:
Good jacket. New York. 1929. Knopf. 1st American Edition. Very Good in Slightly Worn Dustjacket. Translated from the German by Huntley Paterson. 333 pages. hardcover. keywords: Europe Germany Literature Translated World Literature. DESCRIPTION-The action of this new novel by the author of THE DEVIL is laid in Tuscany, during the Carbonari uprising of the 1830's. As in THE DEVILS, Neumann is here concerned less with the exterior trappings of the conventional historical novel than with the inner souls of his characters. Here again he has written a story of breathless suspense, complex intrigue, perfectly recreated background, and powerfully delineated characters whose reality makes living contemporaries out of historical personages. Neumann's method is his own; he is a consummate master of plot and narrative, the two essentials of the exciting story; but in addition, his books are profoundly and psychologically true, which lifts them into the realm of enduring literature. inventory #9496.
