Potocki Jan

Summary

Jan Potocki: Manuscript found in Zaragoza (1804)

Now you can choose: do you want a lighter or a darker version, and you can read both together, because not a single Manuscript novel was found in Zaragoza. There are actually two novels under that title (the first from 1804, the second from 1810) and both are authentic, but still different. The first version is more cheerful and irresistible. The second, more serious and far-reaching, even more irresistible, offers us a revised, final and complete text. Their original French autograph was finally, two hundred years after its creation, found in one of the Polish libraries, where it was hidden so that no one knew about it. Now, for the first time, with confidence in its authenticity, we can dedicate ourselves to reading this superb work as a double gift, because this is the first Serbian translation from the original as the author wrote it.

Luis Buñuel, Roger Cajo, Martin Scorsese, Francis Ford Coppola, Neil Gaiman, Salman Rushdie swore by the Manuscript found in Zaragoza... And you will too, no less than them.

In 2002, François Rose and Dominique Trier discovered in the State Archives in Poznań unknown parts of Jan Potocki's manuscript found in Saragossa, in copies on paper with a dated watermark, and came to the conclusion that there are actually two authentic versions of the novel. In their research, Rose and Trier engaged in detective work: they compiled lists of where manuscripts could be found, starting with the archives of Jan Potocki's children and their descendants, analyzed fund histories, searched archives in fifteen countries... Fortunately, Potocki on English paper with a watermark with the year of production and identifying the copyist's handwriting and the quality of the ink, two researchers managed to reconstruct the time and phases of the creation and disappearance of the manuscript. that there are actually two novels under the title Manuscript found in Zaragoza, which reflect different philosophical conceptions of the work in Potocki's imagination. The two novels complement each other like two wings of a great diptych, but each of them is an autonomous work, which they named Manuscript found in Zaragoza (1804) and Manuscript found in Zaragoza (1810).

This book contains a novel from 1804
