Summary "Kenilworth I-II" by Walter Scott is a historical novel written in the early 19th century. The story is set during the reign of Queen Elizabeth I of England and centers on the fate of Amy Robsart, the purportedly murdered wife of the Earl of Leicester. The novel explores themes of love, ambition, and intrigue against a richly detailed backdrop of Tudor England. The opening of "Kenilworth" introduces readers to a lively setting in an old English inn during the reign of Queen Elizabeth I, where various characters engage in spirited conversation. A traveler arrives and converses with the innkeeper, Giles Gosling, who prides himself on his establishment. The traveler, Tressilian, inquires about a long-lost relative, Mikael Lambourne, which leads to lively discussions about their past and the fortunes of other characters. The scene sets the tone for the novel, blending humor, camaraderie, and hints of deeper plots to come, all while establishing the dynamic atmosphere of Elizabethan society.
