Description: Foucault's Pendulum by Umberto Eco Translated from the Italian by William Weaver Orlando - Austin - New York - San Diego - Toronto - London A Harvest Book - Harcourt, Inc. 2007 Signed by Umberto Eco on the title page. Octavo, x, 623 pages, publisher's original color pictorial wraps. Some slight wear, else in very good + condition. "Foucault's Pendulum" by Umberto Eco is a complex and richly detailed novel that explores themes of conspiracy, mysticism, and the interpretation of history. It follows three Milanese editors—Casaubon, Belbo, and Diotallevi—who, while working at a vanity press, create an elaborate fictional conspiracy theory called "The Plan," based on the idea that the Knights Templar have been secretly controlling the world for centuries. As they immerse themselves in esoteric texts and symbols, they start to find real-life correspondences that blur the lines between reality and fiction, leading to dangerous consequences. Named after the Foucault pendulum, which demonstrates the Earth's rotation, the novel uses this metaphor to delve into the search for meaning in a chaotic world, combining historical events, philosophy, and obscure knowledge into a thrilling and intellectually stimulating narrative.
