"Fulco de Minstreel: Een historisch verhaal uit den tijd van Graaf Jan I voor..." by C. Joh. Kieviет is a historical novel likely written in the late 19th century. The story is set in the late 13th century, during turbulent times marked by noble conflicts and the quest for honor and glory. The narrative introduces us to Gijsbrecht, a nobleman of valor and reputation, his faithful squire Jan, and Fulco, a minstreel known for his voice and camaraderie, as they embark on an adventurous journey rife with danger and courtly intrigue. The opening of the book paints a vivid scene on a hot August evening as three horsemen ride towards the castle of Heukelom. As they navigate their way, dialogue indicates their camaraderie and contrasting social standings: Gijsbrecht's nobility, Jan's ambition to become a knight, and Fulco's light-heartedness that masks his courageous spirit. The tranquility of their ride is soon interrupted by the ominous atmosphere hinting at a storm, both literal and metaphorical, as they hear cries for help nearby. This sets the stage for the unfolding drama involving a mysterious assailant and Bertha, Gijsbrecht's betrothed, highlighting themes of loyalty, bravery, and the societal norms of knighthood that will likely drive the plot forward.
