Summary "Monte-Criston kreivi" by Alexandre Dumas is a historical novel written in the mid-19th century. The story centers around Edmond Dantès, a young sailor who is wrongfully imprisoned, and follows his transformation over the years into a wealthy and mysterious figure seeking revenge against those who betrayed him. The themes of justice, vengeance, and redemption permeate the narrative, inviting readers to explore the depths of human emotion and morality. The opening of the narrative introduces readers to the bustling port of Marseille on February 27, 1815, as the Pharaon, a three-masted ship, returns home. Young Edmond Dantès, the first mate, is eager to report the death of the captain to his employer, Monsieur Morrel, while also bearing a letter for the Emperor Napoleon. This scenario sets the stage for Dantès’ journey, showcasing his skill and ambition as he handles the ship deftly, despite being overshadowed by the jealousy of his fellow sailor, Danglars. As Dantès prepares to head home to his father and fiancée, Mercedes, the tension of impending conflict builds, hinting at the later trials he will face due to the envy and malice of others.
