El péndulo de Foucault

Eco’s novel weaves history, philosophy, and conspiracy theories seamlessly. I wonder if the structure was planned from the start or evolved during writing.

The way the protagonists delve into arcane knowledge feels both alluring and unsettling. Does this reflect a broader curiosity about hidden truths?

The book is packed with allusions and citations. I’m curious whether Eco drew from a specific set of sources or if it was more improvisational.
