Young Adso of Melk leaves the ranks of his father, a powerful warlord, and joins William of Baskerville, a Franciscan monk who heads to an abbey in northern Italy to participate in a theological debate.
While William asks for a magnifying glass to be able to proceed with his investigation, Adso meets the mysterious Occitan girl and huntress Anna pursues Bernardo Gui's entourage to avenge her family.
After a new tragic event occurs, William and Adso increase their efforts to decipher the mysterious structure of the labyrinthine library, although Adso is more interested in spending time with the Occitan girl.
Anna is saved at the last minute. Bernardo Gui's armed entourage arrives at the abbey. After a copious feast, an insidious monk poisons his ears by reporting the presence inside the sacred walls of some former Dolcinian heretics.
