In creating the character of Zeno, alchemist and physician of the sixteenth century, Marguerite Yourcenar, author of Memoirs of Hadrian, not only tells the tragic fate of one extraordinary man. This is an age that lives on in its infinite richness, as well as in his bitter and brutal reality, a world of contrasts which confront the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, which already point modern times, whose world comes Zeno, but this gradually emerges a free man, and for this reason will grind. The work in Black got the Prix Femina in 1968 unanimously. This book has been translated into fifteen languages.
