"Délvirágok; Oceánia" by Mór Jókai is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. The narrative engages with mythical and historical elements, introducing readers to the blend of Christianity and paganism in antiquity, particularly during the era of the Emperor Constans. The main storyline revolves around the mysterious character of Tritanhéla and her son Colán, steeped in the legends of Proteus and the connections to the sea and ancient deities. At the start of the novel, readers are transported to the 7th century, where the setting is the tumultuous and mystical landscape of Taormina. The ruins of an ancient temple dedicated to Proteus hint at the deep-rooted mythical traditions amidst the Christian backdrop. Tritanhéla, a descendant of the ancient Pythonissas, possesses the ability to see the future, and her life intertwines with her son Colán, whose unique nature and connection to the ocean unfold in the story. The opening sets the stage for themes of transformation, magic, and the clash between old beliefs and emerging religious structures, establishing a rich context for the unfolding drama.
