Isaac Laquedem <French> (1851) is a novel by Alexandre Dumas.
Abstract
The Prologue takes place in 1469 at Rome and the Introduction gives a graphic sketch of Jerusalem from the days of David until the coming of the Romans. The remainder, described by its author as the "First Part," is devoted to the days of Christ and to a few months immediately preceding the accession of Nero to the Empire.
Editions and translations
The work appeared serially in the journal Le Constitutionnel, beginning on 11 November 1851, and remained unfinished. The first printed edition was published in Brussels in 1852-53. Translated into German in 1853 and then in English in 1899 by Henry Llewellyn Williams, under a new title, Tarry Till I Come!; or, The Everlasting Wanderer: A Story of the Messiah's Life-Times.
