The next morning Berengar’s body is found in a bath. William deciphers a clue left by Venantius about a book that was stolen from him, and they also learn from the herbalist Severinus that ink stains were found on Venantius’s fingers and tongue. On the third day, Abo tells William and Adso that Berengar has disappeared. William and Adso enter the library and get thoroughly lost before finding their way back out. William learns about a secret entrance to the library, and a monk tells him that Adelmo had a sexual relationship with Berengar, the assistant librarian, and likely committed suicide out of shame. The next morning another monk, the translator Venantius of Salvamec, is found dead in a vat of pig’s blood. That evening William debates with the monks about the theological uses of laughter an elderly blind monk, Jorge of Burgos, condemns laughter as disruptive. The abbot, Abo of Fossanova, asks William to look into the recent death of the illuminator Adelmo of Otranto, who fell from the octagonal Aedificium, which houses the abbey’s labyrinthine library William is barred from entering the library itself, however. In 1327 a young Benedictine novice, Adso of Melk, and a learned Franciscan, William of Baskerville, visit a Benedictine monastery in northern Italy for a theological debate.
