Charlotte Mary Yonge

    11 août 1823 – 24 mai 1901

    Charlotte Mary Yonge fut une romancière anglaise prolifique dont l'œuvre considérable, bien que largement épuisée, comprend principalement des romans. Ses écrits abordaient souvent des thèmes tels que la foi chrétienne, le sacrifice de soi et les événements historiques. Yonge fut également la fondatrice et rédactrice en chef de *The Monthly Packet* pendant quarante ans, un magazine initialement destiné aux jeunes filles anglicanes britanniques, visant à façonner leur développement moral et éducatif. Son influence s'étendit au-delà de la littérature, inspirant indirectement la création d'établissements d'enseignement pour filles.

      Set in the year 943, the story unfolds in the Castle of Bayeux, Normandy, characterized by its grand yet somber hall. The architecture features thick stone walls, small windows, and an arched roof supported by sturdy columns, creating a crypt-like atmosphere. Despite the presence of fires at each end, the lack of chimneys allows smoke to linger, enhancing the hall's dark ambiance.
