We present the historical novel by the famous English writer Walter Scott “Quentin Durward” (1823), which tells of the times of the Liège uprising and the Franco-Scottish alliance—and became the author’s first European novel. The young adventurer Quentin Durward, from an impoverished family and an archer of the Scottish guard of King Louis XI, is tasked with accompanying the beautiful Isabelle de Croÿ, Countess of Burgundy, who is fleeing to Liège from a political marriage imposed by Charles the Bold.
