Informazioni su questo libro

"The Most Serene Republic" is narrated in the form of a letter, in which the author describes the curious political organization of a republic of talking spiders. Inspired by the model of the ancient Republic of Venice, they elect their leaders through a peculiar system: balls drawn from a bag determine who occupies the positions. Through this allegory, Machado de Assis constructs an ironic critique of electoral processes and human political structures.
