Summary: "Carmen" by Prosper Mérimée is a novella written in the mid-19th century. The story is set in Spain and revolves around the tumultuous relationship between the narrator, an archaeologist, and the titular character, Carmen, a beautiful and enigmatic young gypsy woman. The narrative delves into themes of passion, jealousy, and the consequences of desire, set against a vivid backdrop of Spanish culture and society. The opening of "Carmen" introduces us to the narrator, who is on an archaeological expedition in Andalusia, searching for the historical battlefield of Munda. He encounters a rugged man named don José, who seems to be a bandit. The narrator fills the scene with rich descriptions, including their surroundings and the mysterious character of don José, who engages the narrator in conversation. As the two men share a meal in a secluded area, it becomes evident that don José has a complex background, hinting at a life of crime. The tension grows when the narrator learns from his guide, Antonio, that don José is indeed a notorious bandit, setting the stage for a story of unexpected encounters and undercurrents of danger that characterize the rest of the novella.
