Summary "Pour la patrie: Roman du XXe siècle" by Jules Paul Tardivel is a novel written in the late 19th century. This work addresses themes of patriotism and the struggle between good and evil, particularly focusing on the tension between religious faith and modern secularism in Canadian society. The narrative likely centers around a protagonist engaged in a political and moral battle influenced by his Christian convictions. At the start of the story, a young man is depicted in a dark, stormy Paris, invoking Eblis, an embodiment of the forces he seeks to align with, as he prepares to set out on a mission directed at the Saint-Laurent, where he intends to fight against the Christian faith. Meanwhile, the narrative introduces significant characters such as Joseph Lamirande, a devoted doctor and Christian, who embodies the virtues of compassion and charity. The contrasting motivations and moral dilemmas faced by these characters set the stage for ongoing battles in both their personal lives and the broader context of societal conflict. The opening establishes a thematic exploration of faith, societal upheaval, and the longing for a national identity aligned with Christian values. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
