Umbert Eco's Baudolino. Een lectuur aan de hand van Nicetas Choniates’ Χρονική διήγησις
- Julie van Peteghem
Abstract
Umberto Eco’s historical novel Baudolino (2000) is laced with quotations and references to other literary works, of which the Χρονική διήγησις, by the Byzantine historiographer Nicetas Choniates (1155-1217), is probably the least well known, though it is one of the most interesting. In this article 1 demonstrate the ways in which Eco integrated the character and the work of Choniates into Baudolino, and how these relate to the general themes of the novel.
