About the Book

Résumé De retour de guerre, le comte Karl de Hombourg arrive au château de Godesberg pour embrasser son frère d'armes le comte Ludwig, landgrave de Godesberg. Il surprend son vieil ami en proie à un horrible soupçon: Othon est-il bien son fils légitime ou est-il le fruit des amours de sa femme Emma et d'Albert avec qui elle a été élevée et à qui elle voue une grande tendresse? Godefroy, cousin de Ludwig, nourrit la suspicion dans l'esprit de ce dernier, qui décide d'enfermer Emma dans un couvent et d'envoyer Othon au monastère. Lorsqu'il apprend la sévère décision de son ami, le comte Karl provoque Godefroy en duel. Il le blesse à mort et un prêtre entend la confession du moribond qu'il rapporte à Ludwig: Albert est le frère adultérin d'Emma; en semant le doute, Godefroy espérait hériter du landgrave. Ludwig veut réparer ses torts. Malheureusement il apprend qu'Emma préfère rester au couvent et qu'Othon s'est jeté dans le Rhin pour échapper au monastère. Ludwig croit son fils mort. En fait, Othon a survécu et s'est associé à une bande d'archers qui se rendent à Clèves où doit avoir lieu la Fête de l'arc. Après une longue route, les archers parviennent devant la ville à la nuit tombée, les portes sont closes. Pour éviter l'orage, ils se réfugient dans les ruines du château de Windeck. L'un d'entre eux, Hermann, veille lorsqu'il aperçoit une jeune fille qui l'invite à dîner avec elle. Sous le charme, Hermann la suit puis, envoûté, il lui avoue qu'il serait heureux de l'épouser. La jeune fille le prend au mot et l'entraîne vers la chapelle. Hermann voit avec effroi les parents de sa belle sortir de leur tombe pour se joindre au cortège nuptial: il lui est impossible de fuir. Pendant ce temps Othon s'est réveillé. Il arrive à temps pour sauver son ami: un signe de croix met fin aux maléfices. Au matin les archers entrent dans Clèves. Othon se distingue et obtient le prix qui lui est remis par la belle Hélèna, fille du prince Adolphe. Ce dernier engage Othon et Hermann à son service. Hélèna s'éprend d'Othon qui ne reste pas insensible au charme de la jeune fille. Mais leur amour semble voué à l'échec puisque Othon ne peut pas dévoiler sa noble naissance. Hélèna annonce à son père qu'elle refuse d'épouser le comte de Ravenstein auquel elle était fiancée. Furieux, ce dernier lance un défi au prince de Clèves qui, trop âgé pour combattre, espère l'arrivée d'un chevalier qui acceptera d'adopter sa cause. En pleine crise, Othon et Hermann disparaissent. Personne n'a encore relevé le défi de Ravenstein, et la situation devient critique. Alexandre Dumas (dit aussi Alexandre Dumas père) est un écrivain français né le 24 juillet 1802 à Villers-Cotterêts (Aisne) et mort le 5 décembre 1870 à Puys, près de Dieppe (Seine-Maritime). Il est le fils de Thomas Alexandre Davy de la Pailleterie, dit le général Dumas, et le père de l'écrivain Alexandre Dumas (1824-1895) dit Dumas fils, auteur en particulier de La Dame aux camélias. Proche des romantiques et tourné vers le théâtre, Alexandre Dumas écrit d'abord des vaudevilles à succès et des drames historiques comme Henri III et sa cour (1829), La Tour de Nesle (1832), Kean (1836). Auteur prolifique, il s'oriente ensuite vers le roman historique telles que la trilogie Les Trois Mousquetaires (1844), Vingt ans après (1845) et Le Vicomte de Bragelonne (1847), ou encore Le Comte de Monte-Cristo (1844 -1846) et La Reine Margot (1845).
