E-text prepared by Tapio Riikonen
"Majakanvartija y.m. kertomuksia" by Henryk Sienkiewicz is a collection of stories written in the late 19th century. The narratives explore various themes, likely including philosophical inquiries into the nature of life, love, and existence, as indicated by the character descriptions and dialogues. The main character introduced is Cajus Septimus Cinna, a Roman patrician grappling with a profound sense of restlessness and dissatisfaction after a life of indulgence and excess in Rome. The opening of the book presents us with Cajus Septimus Cinna, who is depicted as a man of wealth and leisure, having returned to Rome after years in the military. Despite his apparent success and enjoyment of life's pleasures, he experiences a deep existential unrest, feeling that something significant is missing from his life. After exhausting all forms of luxury and entertainment, he is sent to Alexandria to seek a new fortune but finds that his discontent follows him. The intricacies of his character are explored through his interactions with philosophers and his eventual friendship with Timon, a wise older man. As Cinna confronts his inner turmoil, the story hints at the exploration of love, truth, and the search for meaning, particularly as he becomes enamored with Timon's daughter, Antea, who embodies wisdom and beauty.
