Anton Manwel Caruana

Anton Manwel Caruana is the author of a historical novel that Maltese studies place at the beginning of the country's literary prose. He brought into it the language and the national themes dear to the Romantic writers, on the model of Italian historical novels, by setting Maltese characters in a specific period of the island's history. The writer Ġużè Galea devoted a study to him in 1939, and his novel, written in 1888, is still reissued in Malta.
