After the release of the world bestseller The Name of the Rose (1980), made famous by the famous movie, Italian historian, aesthetician, structuralist Umberto Eco found himself in a difficult position. How to take similar heights a second time? How to compose an equally successful book for different readers, both erudite and unsophisticated? A book as lively as it is wise, as sardonic as it is tender? The author took a risk - and confirmed the previous record. "Foucault's Pendulum" (1988) became as famous as "The Name of the Rose", and the movie on it was not made only because the author himself did not allow the great Stanley Kubrick. On these pages interact editors of the Milanese publishing house, temple knights, voodoo priests and anti-fascist guerrillas. Told and about the legendary Templars, the secret masters of the world, but only to remind: history is reliable when its basis - an indisputable document. Everything else is a game. A game that can be dangerous.
