| Summary |
"Régi és új világ: Elbeszélések" by Zoltán Ambrus is a collection of short stories written in the early 20th century. The collection appears to delve into themes of nobility, honor, and conflict during a historically rich narrative period, likely set in a medieval context involving knights and barons. The opening characters include Sir Northumberland and other nobles as they engage in discussions and oaths of loyalty, hinting at a backdrop of rivalry and impending conflict among the nobility. The opening of the collection introduces a scene in Nottingham Castle, where noblemen gather for a feast amid a vibrant atmosphere filled with laughter and rivalry. As the night progresses, discussions turn to oaths of loyalty and plans for battle against Sir Walter Westmoreland, highlighting the tensions among the characters. Sir Northumberland's silence amidst the revelry indicates his brewing anger over recent grievances. Meanwhile, the narrative unfolds with images of hunting and brewing conflicts, hinting at a war that has raged for twenty years, setting the stage for the intertwining tales of love, vengeance, and power struggles that characterize the collection.
