Résumé
Set in the tumultuous era of Elizabethan England, Sir Walter Scott's historical novel "Kenilworth" intricately weaves a tale of romance, intrigue, and political machinations. At the heart of the narrative lies the tragic love story between the beautiful Amy Robsart and the ambitious Robert Dudley, Earl of Leicester, who is driven by desire and the ruthless politics of his courtly ambitions. Scott's vivid prose and meticulous attention to historical detail transport readers into a world where loyalty, honor, and betrayal intertwine, reflecting the complexities of 16th-century British society, especially the tension between the monarchy and its subjects.
Sir Walter Scott, often regarded as the father of the historical novel, draws upon his extensive knowledge of Scottish and English history to craft this engaging narrative. His own background, marked by political unrest and social change, informs his exploration of themes such as love, power, and the impact of history on personal lives.
