Summary "La guardia blanca" by Arthur Conan Doyle is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. The story is set during the tumultuous years of the 14th century, amidst the backdrop of the Hundred Years' War and chronicles the experiences of various characters, including the English knight Tristán de Horla and the young noble Roger de Clinton, as they navigate the complexities of loyalty, conflict, and personal growth during war. The opening of the narrative unveils a scene at the monastery of Belmonte, where an unexpected bell ringing calls the monks to an urgent assembly, alarming the local villagers. The stern Abbot Fray Diego is preoccupied with discipline and the governance of his monastery, concerned about the behavior of the novitiate, Tristán, who is known for his rebellious spirit. A series of humorous yet serious events unfold as Tristán faces accusations of misconduct, ultimately leading to his expulsion from the monastery. Meanwhile, another character, Roger, is preparing to leave the monastery and experience the world, disrupting the calm of monastic life with his departure. This dual narrative introduces key themes of freedom, discipline, and the complexity of human relationships, effectively setting the stage for the unfolding adventures.
