Summary | "Lidewyde" by Conrad Busken Huet is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story appears to explore themes of love, societal dynamics, and the struggles of its characters within their environment. Key characters include Lidewyde, who is introduced as a strikingly beautiful young woman, and André, who faces the complexities of his feelings for Emma, the daughter of a local artist. At the start of the narrative, a vibrant scene unfolds as a large wagon filled with townsmen arrives at a tollgate near a forest. Among them is a captivating young woman dressed in traditional North Holland attire, whose radiant beauty draws the attention of the group. Meanwhile, the novel introduces André, a young engineer tasked with constructing a bridge connecting Duinendaal to broader transport routes. As he mingles with the Visscher family, consisting of the old painter, and his daughters Lydia and Emma, André grapples with his growing affection for Emma while navigating the complexities of social class and personal aspiration. This opening sets the stage for interpersonal dramas and the unfolding of emotional entanglements within a picturesque Dutch setting. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
