| Summary | "Musta tulpaani: Romaani" by Alexandre Dumas is a historical novel written in the early 19th century. The story unfolds against the backdrop of the tumultuous political landscape of 17th-century Holland, focusing on the de Witt brothers, particularly Kornelius de Witt, and the surrounding chaos involving their struggles against the rising power of the Oranians amidst a society steeped in intrigue and conflict. The opening of "Musta tulpaani" sets the stage in The Hague, where the populace is in an uproar over Kornelius de Witt's imprisonment and accusation of conspiracy. As he faces imminent danger from a frenzied mob outside the prison, the narrative introduces key characters, including his brother Jan de Witt and a young woman named Rosa, who are both deeply concerned about Kornelius’s fate. The tension builds as the crowd grows restless, driven by anger and betrayal, while the brothers make desperate plans for escape, showcasing a mix of historical events and personal drama that forms a gripping narrative.
