Sobre IBD

Rafael Sabatini’s classic story of historical fiction, set during the French Revolution, was published in 1921. A romantic adventure, 'Scaramouche' describes the tale of a young lawyer during the French Revolution. In the series of his adventures, he becomes an actor, representing 'Scaramouche' (a dishonest fool character in the Commedia dell’Arte). Moreover, he also became a revolutionary, fencing master, and politician, frustrating his enemies with his strong speeches and swordsmanship. He is forced by conditions to change sides several times. This novel also portrays his transformation from disbeliever to idealist.
