Resumen

Le 20 aout 1672, la ville de La Haye, si vivante, si blanche, si coquette que l'on dirait que tous les jours sont des dimanches, la ville de La Haye, avec son parc ombreux, avec ses grands arbres inclines sur ses maisons gothiques, avec les larges miroirs de ses canaux dans lesquels se refletent ses clochers aux coupoles presque orientales ; la ville de La Haye, la capitale des sept Provinces-Unies, gonflait toutes ses arteres d'un flot noir et rouge de citoyens presses, haletants, inquiets, lesquels couraient, le couteau a la ceinture, le mousquet sur l'epaule ou le baton a la main, vers le Buytenhoff, formidable prison dont on montre encore aujourd'hui les fenetres grillees et ou, depuis l'accusation d'assassinat portee contre lui par le chirurgien Tyckelaer, languissait Corneille de Witt, frere de l'ex-grand pensionnaire de Hollande.

Información de la editorial

A deceptively simple story and the shortest of Dumas's most famous novels, The Black Tulip (1850) weaves historical events surrounding a brutal murder into a tale of romantic love. Set in Holland in 1672, this timeless political allegory draws on the violence and crimes of history, making a
case against tyranny and creating a symbol of justice and tolerance: the fateful tulipa negra.

Primera línea

ON THE 20th of August, 1672, the city of the Hague, always so lively, so neat, and so trim, that one might believe every day to be Sunday; with its shady park, with its tall trees, spreading over its Gothic houses; with its canals like large mirrors, in which its steeples and its almost Eastern cupolas are reflected; the city of the Hague, the capital of the seven United Provinces, was swelling in all its arteries with a black and red stream of hurried, panting, and restless citizens, who, with their knives in their girdles, muskets on their shoulders, or sticks in their hands, were pushing on to the Buitenhof, a terrible prison, the grated windows of which are still shown, where, on the charge of attempted murder, preferred against him by the surgeon Tyckelaer, Cornelius De Witte, the brother of the Grand Pensionary of Holland, was confined.
