基本説明
"The Ruins" by Constantin-François Volney, as presented in this excerpt, unfolds a narrative of vengeance, change, and survival set against the backdrop of a vast and mysterious forest. The story follows Yeoland, the daughter of Rual of Cambremont, who finds herself homeless and grieving after her family is brutally slain and their home destroyed by the forces of Flavian of Gambrevault. As she and her loyal servant Jaspar navigate the perilous woods, they encounter Fulviac, a charismatic and enigmatic outlaw transformation. Fulviac, who harbors his own vendetta against Gambrevault, offers Yeoland a chance for revenge and a new purpose. He reveals his plan to challenge the oppressive feudal system and promises Yeoland a role in his grand plans. Despite her initial skepticism, Yeoland is drawn to Fulviac's undertaking and the promise of retribution against her family's murderers. The narrative explores themes of justice, power, and the complexities of human change, as Yeoland must decide whether to trust Fulviac and join his cause. The forest setting serves as a metaphor for the tangled and shadowy paths of fate and change, where the characters must navigate their desires and destinies.
