Summary "Histoire de Flandre (T. 3/4)" by Kervyn de Lettenhove is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The book delves into the political and social tumult faced by Flanders during the late Middle Ages, particularly focusing on the events between 1383 and 1453. It explores themes of resistance, autonomy, and the impact of noble powers on the communities of Flanders, highlighting key figures like Philippe le Hardi and the commune of Ghent. The opening of the work introduces the significance of Flanders in a historical context, emphasizing its prolonged battles for autonomy against external powers, such as the Duchy of Burgundy. It establishes the character of Philippe le Hardi, a prince known for his political maneuvers, contrasting both his apparent generosity and underlying tactics to subdue the local bourgeoisie. As tensions rise, the narrative begins with a recounting of conflicts involving various factions, including the Gantois and their desperate attempts to maintain their freedoms amid relentless oppression. This sets the stage for a gripping examination of the struggle for rights and identity against the backdrop of a changing socio-political landscape. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
