Kenilworth by Walter Scott
Kenilworth. A Romance is a historical novel by Sir Walter Scott, first published on 8 January 1821. Set apparently in 1575, Kenilworth centers on the secret marriage of Robert Dudley, 1st Earl of Leicester, and Amy Robsart, daughter of Sir Hugh Robsart.
Kenilworth is a novel of selfishness versus selflessness and ambition versus love.
The novel gives a fair depiction of the Elizabethan court.
