	Eco - Review of Folio Society's "Name of the Rose"
		Universally regarded as a modern masterpiece, The Name of the Rose has already earned the status of "classic," and though published in 1980, Harcourt Brace still keeps a hardcover edition in print.
		Although this is unusual, it's not entirely surprising -- of the few novels published in the last few decades to merit a perpetual hardcover edition, The Name of the Rose belongs next to such works as One Hundred Years of Solitude and Gravity's Rainbow.
		A book about books, Rose evokes the weight of ancient libraries, of illuminated texts bound in exotic leathers and inscribed with maps and legends; indeed, only a hardcover seems truly capable of supporting its labyrinthine prose and sheer density of ideas.

	DVD Talk Review: The Name of the Rose
		The Name of the Rose has been described as "a European film on a Hollywood budget," which isn't a bad way to think of this brooding, thoughtful film that's partly a murder mystery and partly a musing on the human thirst for, and simultaneous fear of, knowledge.
		Running two hours and eleven minutes, The Name of the Rose unfolds slowly; the character of Bernardo Gui doesn't even appear until halfway through, though F. Murray Abraham's portrayal of the arrogant Inquisitor is certainly memorable enough to consider him one of the key characters.
		The Name of the Rose is a dark and richly textured film that does a commendable job of capturing Umberto Eco's massive novel on the screen.

	THE CINEMA LASER DVD REVIEW-- THE NAME OF THE ROSE
		Although the film is set in an Italian abbey during the 14th Century, THE NAME OF THE ROSE ($20) is very much a Sherlock Holmes style mystery.
		In fact, the allusions to Sherlock Holmes are certainly within the story itself, with the central character of THE NAME OF THE ROSE being named William of Baskerville.
		With some of the older monks given to religious hysteria, there is talk that "the devil" walks the corridors of the abbey, thus William begins an exercise in deductive reasoning to uncover how the young man really died.
