The count is a man of sixty,who speaks four European languages and displays urbanity without great erudition. He is a man of culture. who has made his peace with life; he merely wishes to live out his appointed days in a reasonable manner in Italy, since his health is fragile and the reader is told that the Count does not expect to live long if he must stay north of the Alps.
