About this audiobook
A la mort de Kempelen, en 1804, son fils vend l’automate à Johann Maelzel, un musicien bavarois intéressé par la mécanique, qui le restaure et l’améliore. L’automate continue à faire de nombreuses apparitions. Il jouera contre Napoléon Bonaparte, contre de grands joueurs d’échecs et fera des tournées au Royaume-Uni et aux Etats-Unis.
Edgar Allan Poe remarque le Turc mécanique à Richmond, en Virginie. Il écrit un essai intitulé Le Joueur d'échecs de Mælzel en avril 1836, où il tente d’expliquer les secrets de l’automate. C’est le texte le plus célèbre traitant du Turc mécanique.
