Book Description
" Le Procurateur de Judée frappe le lecteur contemporain de stupéfaction, parce qu'il va à rebours de la connaissance que, lui, il possède de Pilate : cette connaissance n'existe que par rapport à Jésus. Le conte lui donne à soupçonner qu'elle est méconnaissance. Symbole séculaire de la lâcheté devant le juste, Pilate, oublieux de Jésus, reprend une vraisemblance historique que contribue à induire la description du paysage, de la villa, du repas. Il apparaît comme un homme de probité et de bonne volonté, qui n'est pas étranger aux spéculations intellectuelles de son temps, mais qui possède surtout le sens des bienfaits de la "paix romaine". Homme de devoir, non sans rigidité, il serait un gouverneur remarquable pour toute autre terre que la Judée. En Judée, il ne "reçoit" pas le langage, les coutumes, les exigences de monothéistes fanatiques. Ce n'est pas seulement parce qu'ils vont contre l'ordre romain. C'est parce qu'à la lettre, il ne les comprend pas... " Marie-Claire Bancquart

Book Description
This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1880 edition. Excerpt: ... LETTER OF PONTIUS PILATE TO CLAUDIUS CESAR. Pontius Pilate to Claudius, greeting: There has lately happened an event which I myself was concerned, in. For the Jews, through envy, have inflicted upon themselves and on those coming after them dreadful judgments. Their fathers had promises that their God would send them his holy one from heaven, who, according to reason, should be called their king, and he had promised to send him to the earth by means of a virgin. He, then, when I was procurator, came into Judea. And they saw him enlightening the blind, cleansing lepers, healing paralytics, expelling demons from men, raising the dead, subduing the winds, walking upon the waves of the sea, and doing many other wonders, and all the people of the Jews calling him Son of God. Then the chief priests, moved with envy against him, seized him and delivered him to me; and, telling one lie after another, they said he was a wizzard, and did contrary to their law. And I, having believed these things were so, gave him up, after scourging him, to their will, and they crucified him; and after he was buried set guards over him. But he, while my soldiers were guarding him, rose on the third day. And to such a degree was the wickedness of the Jews inflamed against him that they gave money to the soldiers, saying, "Say his disciples have stolen his body." But they, having taken the money, were not able to keep silence as to what had happened; for they have testified that they have seen him risen, and that they have received money from the Jews. These things have I reported, that no one should falsely speak otherwise, and that thou shouldst not suppose that the falsehoods of the Jews are to be believed.

Book Description
A masterful translation of one of the great novels of the 20th century Nothing in the whole of literature compares with The Master and Margarita. Full of pungency and wit, this luminous work is Bulgakov's crowning achievement, skilfully blending magical and realistic elements, grotesque situations and major ethical concerns. Written during the darkest period of Stalin's repressive reign and a devastating satire of Soviet life, it combines two distinct yet interwoven parts, one set in contemporary Moscow, the other in ancient Jerusalem, each brimming with incident and with historical, imaginary, frightful and wonderful characters. Although completed in 1940, The Master and Margarita was not published until 1966 when the first section appeared in the monthly magazine Moskva. Russians everywhere responded enthusiastically to the novel's artistic and spiritual freedom and it was an immediate and enduring success. This new translation has been made from the complete and unabridged Russian text.
