| Summary | "King Matthias and the Beggar Boy" by báró Miklós Jósika is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. The story follows the adventures of a beggar boy named Miska who encounters King Matthias, a character known for his progressive ways and commitment to justice. As the plot unfolds, Miska is drawn into a larger narrative involving intrigue, danger, and the hopes of a better life. At the start of the narrative, we are introduced to Miska, a dusty traveler who aspires to uncover the mysteries surrounding an ominous castle owned by Mr. Samson. After a brief interaction with the king, who rides past him, Miska's life takes an unexpected turn as he is entrusted with a mission. He is tasked by the king to infiltrate the castle and gather intelligence about its enigmatic owner and rumored dark dealings. This opening sets up a theme of transformation; Miska embarks on a quest not only for answers but also for a chance at a new life amidst the tensions of a kingdom rife with robbers and secrets.
