| Summary | "Cinq Mars — Volume 2" by Alfred de Vigny is a historical novel likely written in the early 19th century. The narrative revolves around themes of power, injustice, and personal vendetta during a time of political turmoil, focusing on the unjust trial and fate of Urbain Grandier, a priest accused of sorcery. The opening portion of the novel sets an intense and foreboding stage marked by public chaos surrounding a trial that has captivated the populace. The main character, Cinq-Mars, observes the emotional upheaval as a young advocate passionately defends the accused Grandier amidst a backdrop of torture and crowd violence. As tensions rise, Cinq-Mars experiences a profound sense of injustice and bitterness, leading him to act out against the corrupt judges. The narrative unfolds with vivid imagery, highlighting the brutality of the time and the moral struggles of the characters as they confront their fates amidst the stormy political landscape.
