This âerudite murder mystery,â first published in 1980 as Il Nome della Rosa, was semiotics professor Umberto Ecoâs first novel and proved an international bestseller. Critically praised as a âbrilliantly conceived adventure into another timeâ (SF Chronicle), the novel âencapsulates Ecoâs semiotic theory, which describes how signs are produced and interpreted in the world. The novel presents clues for the reader to decode, but as the reader grapples with the novelâs deeper meanings, the mystery becomes secondaryâ (Columbia University Press). âAn extraordinary work of novelistic artâ (Harperâs). It has went on to sell over 50 million copies worldwide, becoming one of the best-selling books ever published. It has received many international awards and accolades, such as the Strega Prize in 1981 and Prix Medicis Ãtranger in 1982, and was ranked 14th on Le Monde's 100 Books of the Century list.

After serving in Military Intelligence during World War II, he was a professor of sociology at the Graduate Center of the City University of New York and the City College of New York, taught at Columbia University, and was the author of more than 40 books, including The New People: Desexualization in American Life, published in 1969, in which he contended that American society was "following the path of Ancient Greece and Rome" by gradually becoming a "neutered society."

Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. No ISBN found. The first printing was "Bompiani settembre 1980"; this is NOT the first printing. Copyright page and printer's gray sticker to final page both identify this copy as "VII edizione Bompiani settembre 1981," though as this copy otherwise looks pretty much identical to a true first, and as we doubt they re-set the type six times in 12 months, we'll interpret "edizione"' here as equivalent to an American "seventh printing." Italian-language edition. Jacket clipped to bottom of rear flap. Dated "7.11.82" and signed "Umberto Eco" in the late author's distinctive hand in blue ink directly to the half-title page. The masterpiece of the Italian literary critic, philosopher, and university professor; a murder biblio-mystery set in a 14th Century Northern Italian abbey, the solution to which requires all the arcane biblical and semiotic knowledge of that learned visiting Englishman, the Franciscan Brother William of Baskerville. The successful 1986 film, directed by Jean-Jacques Annaud, starred Christian Slater, Feodor Chaliapin Jr., and Sean Connery as Brother William of Baskerville.
