| Summary |
"A láthatatlan ember: Regény" by Géza Gárdonyi is a historical novel likely written in the early 20th century. The narrative revolves around the life of a young slave named Teofil, who is sold by his father and endures the hardships of servitude in ancient times. The book explores themes of identity, love, and the human condition against the backdrop of the Roman Empire and the interactions with the Huns. The opening of the novel introduces us to Teofil's traumatic beginning as he is sold into slavery at the age of twelve. His experiences are filled with the cruelty of his young masters and the subsequent brutal treatment he endures. As he develops a bond with his new master, Priszkosz, the story hints at deeper philosophical themes, such as the nature of freedom and the meaning of existence. Teofil transforms from a powerless child into a more aware and intelligent individual, navigating the complexities of his position while hinting at the possibilities that lie ahead. This establishes a foundation for exploring the stark contrasts between different societal levels in the Roman world and the intricate relationships between master and servant.
