مغامرات فرديناند، الكونت فاثوم

Summary

«مغامرات فرديناند، الكونت فاثوم» رواية لتوبياس سموليت، نُشرت للمرة الأولى عام 1753. وكانت ثالث روايات سموليت، ولم تلقَ من النجاح ما لقيته حكايتاه السابقتان، وهما أشد انتماءً إلى أدب المغامرات. بطلها متأنق ماكر، يشق طريقه بالخداع والاحتيال ومغازلة النساء عبر إنجلترا وسائر أوروبا، غير عابئ بالقانون أو بمصالح الآخرين. وهو ابن أم لا تقل عنه سوء سمعة، وقد علّق سموليت نفسه قائلًا: «يصدق على فاثوم المثل القائل: ما ينشأ في العظم لا يخرج من اللحم». وقال السير والتر سكوت إن الرواية ترسم «صورة كاملة لانحطاط الإنسان». يورد هذا الكتاب الألفاظ العنصرية وغيرها من ألفاظ السباب في عصره كما كُتبت؛ ويشرح «دليل الكتاب» هذه الألفاظ في مواضع ورودها. يتضمن هذا الكتاب مشاهد عنف كما كتبها مؤلفه.
