Peter the Priest E-text prepared by Steven desJardins and the Project Gutenberg Online Distributed Proofreading Team "Peter the Priest" by Mór Jókai is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story unfolds in a monastery where young Peter, a novice monk with a stern character, faces the daunting task of becoming the educator for the mischievous son of a powerful patroness. This narrative delves into themes of temptation, duty, and the complexities of human relationships, particularly through the eyes of Father Peter as he navigates his conflicting emotions towards his new role and the alluring patroness. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to a group of monks discussing a letter from their patroness, who seeks a tutor for her troublesome son. As they debate the qualifications of sending one of their own, they ultimately decide on Peter, despite his youth and relative inexperience. The surrounding dialogue reveals the monks' apprehensions about the patroness and her son, while Peter faces an internal struggle regarding his own inclination towards temptation. The first chapter sets the stage for Peter's upcoming trials as he embraces his new role, leaving behind the comfort of his monastery and stepping into a world filled with challenges and moral dilemmas.
