À propos de ce contenu audio

In Is He Popenjoy, Anthony Trollope delves into two of his favorite themes property and inheritance, woven with the intricate threads of legitimacy and family dynamics. Lord George Germain, a respectable yet not particularly clever younger son, eagerly anticipates inheriting a title from his dissolute elder brother, the Marquis of Brotherton, who resides in Italy and shows no intention of settling down. However, a shocking twist occurs when the Marquis claims he has married an Italian widow and fathered a son, potentially legitimizing the heir, Lord Popenjoy. But is he truly legitimate? Were the Marquis and his wife united in holy wedlock at the time of this child’s birth on foreign soil? As the story unfolds from a light-hearted comedy of manners into a more sardonic mystery, we encounter a cast of vivid characters, including the off-putting German feminist Baroness Bannmann and the intriguing American Amelia Q. Fleabody, whose resemblance to a certain historical figure adds an extra layer of complexity to the narrative. Join us on this engaging exploration of aristocratic life, love, and legitimacy.
