Summary "Le sorcier de Meudon" by Éliphas Lévi is a novel written during the mid-19th century. The story intertwines the legendary figure of the priest of Meudon, known for his mastery of the occult sciences, alongside the narrative of a novice named brother Lubin. The book delves into themes of love, spirituality, and the magical undercurrents that define human interactions, set against the backdrop of the quaint Abbey of Basmette and its surrounding community. At the start of the novel, readers are introduced to the tranquil atmosphere of the Abbey of Basmette, home to its devoted monks. The narrative focuses on the relationship between brother Lubin and a beautiful young girl named Marjolaine, revealing the complexities of Lubin's impending vows and his affections for her. The story takes a humorous turn as Lubin navigates the strict but comedic dynamics within the abbey, particularly under the watchful eye of brother Paphnuce, the harsh master of novices. As the plot unfolds, it becomes evident that both love and the mysterious traditions of the abbey play pivotal roles in Lubin’s life decisions, setting the stage for further developments in their intertwined fates.
