In *The Soldier's Cloak*, the first volume, Gallo presents the debate between Julius Galvinius and his son, Antonius, in defense of two constantly conflicting worlds. Julius seeks to convince his son to return to tradition, while the latter tries to convert his father to the new faith. The center of the discussion ends up being the life of Saint Martin, also torn between two worldviews. Martin, through his prayers and solitude, decided to dedicate himself to God. However, God chose to act differently. Martin was elected bishop of Tours and called to convert the pagans and destroy the ancient cult. His only weapons were prayer and preaching. His discipline and the poverty in which he lived, combined with the miracles he performed, led to the emergence of an ever-growing community around him, which immediately recognized him as the first Christian teacher. Max Gallo's series \"The Christians\" continues with \"The Baptism of the King\" and \"The Monk's Crusade,\" presenting the other two pillars of Christian France.","brand":"Totvsrj-record-dc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47175474315516,"sku":"9788528612950","price":59.9,"currency_code":"BRL","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0722\/9197\/5420\/files\/57ad5523580924a184800a883a1eb0fb_b8c8da63-9abd-48e0-8b3f-890b262c8148.jpg?v=1778324464"},{"product_id":"victor-hugo-eu-sou-uma-forca-que-avanca-vol-1-1802-1843","title":"Victor Hugo: I am a force that advances! (Vol 1: 1802-1843)","description":"Everyone knows that Victor Hugo was one of the greatest writers of all time. But what is known about the man, the husband, the lover? And, above all, about the child, torn between his military father and his Vendée-born mother, both vying for custody of their three children? French writer and historian Max Gallo, author of the Patriots series and the famous biographies of Napoleon and de Gaulle, illuminates the life of one of the great geniuses of literature through a fabulous historical novel. *Victor Hugo: I Am a Force That Advances!*, the first part of the monumental two-volume biography of Victor Hugo, traces the paths the writer traced during the first half of his life, from 1802 to 1843. At 12, Victor Hugo wrote his first poems; at 14, he wanted to \"be Chateaubriand or nothing\"; at 18, the French Academy was already celebrating him prematurely. And even at an early age, his political impulses presaged his future! Because he would be present in every battle, denouncing the misery of the people, fighting against the death penalty and injustice, visiting prisons and galleys, protesting against child labor, and organizing a lottery with Lamartine, Dumas, and Balzac to create daycare centers... Writer Max Gallo is the heir to a literary genre that consists of fictionalizing history based on rigorously scientific hypotheses: the historical novel. He did this with great personalities, and now, according to critics, he has created his masterpiece by narrating the real trajectory of Victor Hugo (without falling into the distortions of an existence known to be resounding). Yves Violler, in the magazine La Vie, stated that, through reading Gallo's text, \"Victor Hugo is placed strangely close to us. His genius becomes familiar.\" The story will be concluded in the second volume of the work, This One Is Me!","brand":"Totvsrj-record-dc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47175908163836,"sku":"9788528612226","price":84.9,"currency_code":"BRL","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0722\/9197\/5420\/files\/9b6a1a1941f1be13cd990e1a059b0d4a.jpg?v=1778323497"},{"product_id":"os-fanaticos","title":"The fanatics","description":"Claire became Aicha. Upon marrying, she chose to convert to Islam. Her father, Julien Nori, a professor at the Sorbonne, feels his daughter's decision is a personal failure. An intellectual inspired by the Age of Enlightenment, he fears the return of the Inquisitions and fanaticism. He fears the clash of civilizations. His daughter's choice disturbs him, questioning his convictions and everything he believed he had transmitted. He wants to understand, to renew the dialogue with Claire. He finds only Aicha. One day in October, he is murdered in Paris, just meters from the Sorbonne. Was it revenge by some fanatic or just a sordid police case disguised as an Islamic crime? Max Gallo investigates. He leaves no question unanswered. The novel—moving and lucid—uncovers, behind appearances, the temptations of fanaticism. And Claire and Nori's reasons for living and dying.

The final volume of the trilogy, *The Monk's Crusade*, finally addresses the life of Bernard of Clairvaux, the third pillar of Christian France. During the Middle Ages, men still fought with words and weapons in the name of imposing their faith. The Cistercian Bernard of Clairvaux found himself at the center of the great controversies that shook Christianity: the Church, divided between two popes; the Crusades, which sought to bring Christ beyond borders and regain control of the Holy Places; and the early philosophical disputes that pitted the monk against Abelard. Before his death, Bernard of Clairvaux wrote his spiritual testament to tell how he became, guided by God, the prolific founder of some 350 abbeys that followed a lineage of severe discipline and the loquacious preacher of Christianity.","brand":"Totvsrj-record-dc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47176266088700,"sku":"9788528612974","price":59.9,"currency_code":"BRL","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0722\/9197\/5420\/files\/2c31ffa1bed83c8e0b2be4699c3a13de.jpg?v=1778321400"},{"product_id":"o-batismo-do-rei-os-cristaos-vol-2","title":"O batismo do rei (Os Cristãos - Vol. 2)","description":"Em sua nova trilogia, Max Gallo – autor do qual a Bertrand Brasil já publicou as séries Os Patriotas e Victor Hugo – apresenta uma fascinante saga histórica ambientada na Idade Média. Os Cristãos traz o surgimento da França cristã por meio de três personagens primordiais: Martinho, o primeiro evangelizador dos gauleses; Clóvis, o bárbaro convertido que unificou a Gália e tornou-se o primeiro rei cristão; e Bernardo de Clairvaux, o grande fundador da ordem cisterciense que preconizou a segunda cruzada. O Batismo do Rei é o segundo volume da série, que conta a história de um dos três pilares nos quais se fundamenta a França cristã: Clóvis. No século V, a Gália estava em chamas e coberta de sangue. Durante três décadas, Genoveva, a santa parisiense, e Remi, o bispo de Reims, tiveram de lançar mão de toda sua convicção e fé para apoiar o jovem e cruel rei dos francos em sua obsessão por conquistas. Clóvis, então, conseguiu unificar o enorme território da Gália e submetê-lo à lei de Deus. Contudo, o tormento não estaria no fim: vinganças e ambições voltariam a dilacerar o império após um trágico acidente.A trilogia Os Cristãos, de Max Gallo, teve início com O Manto do Soldado, trazendo a história de são Martinho, e será concluída de forma excepcional com seu último volume, A Cruzada do Monge.","brand":"Editora Record","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48902247121148,"sku":"9788528612967","price":49.9,"currency_code":"BRL","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0722\/9197\/5420\/files\/7515e4a0b1c1aa5f7dd1256e01547db5_4ca12125-aaac-4f39-b60e-35fe14938db2.jpg?v=1778325258"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.record.com.br\/en\/collections\/max-gallo.oembed","provider":"Editora Record","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
