About this eBook

Author Heyse, Paul, 1830-1914
Title Das Mädchen von Treppi
Credits Produced by Delphine Lettau
Summary "Das Mädchen von Treppi" by Paul Heyse is a novella likely written in the mid-19th century. Set in a secluded shepherd village in the Apennines, the story centers around the characters Filippo, a young lawyer, and Fenice, a beautiful girl who seems to hold a long-standing affection for him. Their interaction reveals a complex web of emotions, love, and past connections, hinting at the tension between societal expectations and personal desires. The opening of the novella establishes a vivid, atmospheric setting, detailing the quiet, almost forgotten village of Treppi as dusk falls and the inhabitants go about their evening routines. The narrative introduces Filippo, who is unexpectedly drawn back to this isolated haven, and Fenice, who eagerly approaches him. Their dialogue reveals a shared history and unresolved feelings, as they engage in banter reflecting their past. Notably, the introduction of a mysterious incident involving a dog and Filippo's somewhat reckless demeanor illustrates an underlying tension. As the stakes rise, with Filippo on the brink of a potentially dangerous duel, the initial chapters set the stage for a tale infused with emotional depth and dramatic tension, exploring themes of love, loyalty, and fate.
