The Life of Adrian von Bubenberg and the Time of Duke Charles the Bold of Burgundy and the Battle of Murten.

In this grand novel, Rudolf von Tavel tells us the life story of Adrian von Bubenberg. Behind the main characters, a wide horizon unfolds: the splendor and vitality of the Burgundian era, the machinations of politics at the French and Burgundian courts, the harrowing days of decision during the siege and battle of Murten, in which we too are swept away by the tumult and chaos. A distant time becomes a vivid present. The profound and serious idea of the novel resonates deeply with us, applicable to today's people just as it was to the hero of Murten: "We are all part of the chain, but if even one link is missing, the whole chain is of no use.".
