Publisher's Synopsis

Excerpt from Oeuvres de Walter Scott, Vol. 11: Kenilworth

Il est possible que la medisance, qui epargne rarement la-me moire des personnes placees dans des positions elevees ait noirci le caractere de Leicester de teintes plus sombres qu'il ne le meritait reellement. Mais la voix presque unanime de ses contemporains attache les plus odieux soupcons ala mort de la malheureuse com tesse, surtout parce que cette mort arriva justement au moment le plus favorable aux ambitieux desirs de son epoux. Si nous pouvons nous en rapporter aux Antiquites du comte de Berk, par Ashmole, la tradition qui accuse Leicester du meurtre de sa femme n'aurait que tr0p de fondement. Le lecteur verra dans l'extrait suivant sur quelles bases s'appuient les faits'retraces dans le' roman.
