Sinopsis

'The Bride of Lammermoor' is a classic historical novel by Sir Walter Scott, set in the tumultuous landscape of 17th-century Scotland. This tragic tale of love and betrayal unfolds against a backdrop of political intrigue and family feuds. Lucy Ashton, the daughter of a politically weakened nobleman, is pressured into a marriage that will restore her family?s fortunes. However, her heart belongs to Edgar Ravenswood, the last of a family sworn to avenge themselves against the Ashtons. As Lucy and Edgar secretly pledge their love, the forces arrayed against them conspire to tear them apart. Deception, manipulation, and ancient rivalries lead to a devastating climax. Scott?s masterful storytelling evokes the atmosphere of the Scottish moors, the grandeur of the castles, and the passions that drive men and women to extremes. 'The Bride of Lammermoor' remains a powerful exploration of fate, duty, and the destructive nature of vengeance.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
