Au Panthéon des marins naufragés, Edmond Dantès occupe sans conteste une place à part. Victime d'une dénonciation calomnieuse alors qu'il allait épouser la belle Mercédès, le malheureux - à l'aube de sa vie - est enfermé pour 14 ans dans un sinistre cachot du château d'If en rade de Marseille. Son salut viendra de l'abbé Faria, un autre prisonnier avec lequel il entretient une amitié clandestine des années durant. Celui-ci lui transmet sa vaste culture et à sa mort, un trésor caché. Dantès fuit alors et ce faisant échappe de peu à la noyade. Il est dit mort et, après s'être assuré le trésor caché dans l'île de Monte-Cristo, il renaît sous une nouvelle identité, celle du comte de Monte-Cristo. Doté d'un immense fortune, d'une puissance sans limite et d'une intelligence supérieure, Monte-Cristo se consacre à sa vengeance, en utilisant notamment toutes sortes de fausses identités et de déguisements. Egalement à l'aise dans la société des bandits italiens ou des contrebandiers corses que dans celle de l'aristocratie parisienne qu'il éblouit, notre héros retrouve les dénonciateurs d'Edmond Dantès, qui ont tous réalisé une progression fulgurante dans la société, et les perd par où ils ont pêché : jouant sur leurs désirs de pouvoir, de fortune amoureuse et financière, il exhume leurs méfaits passés et leur tend des pièges complexes auxquels ils sont bien incapables d'échapper. A l'inverse, il rétribue tout aussi généreusement ceux qui furent fidèles au jeune marin et à son vieux père sans ressources.

In 1848, Alexandre Dumas, an illegitimate son, cruelly excluded from Parisian Society, wrote one of the nineteenth century's most moving novels. Four years later, he penned La Dame aux Camélias, a play based on the novel, which itself was Verdi's inspiration for the tragic opera La Traviata. -http://www.lulu.com.
