Summary "Jean-nu-pieds, Vol. 1" by Albert Delpit is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. The story is set during the turbulent times surrounding the July Revolution of 1830 in France, focusing on the life of M. de Kardigân, a devoted royalist and his family as they navigate the dangers and moral complexities of political upheaval. Central to the narrative is the loyal servant Aubin Ploguen and the impact of the revolution on the marquis's children, particularly as their fates intertwine with the political loyalties of their father. The opening of the novel introduces us to the marquis de Kardigân and his servant Aubin Ploguen, who are riding with great urgency towards Paris, where turmoil is brewing. As they approach the city, the narrative foreshadows the challenges they will face amid escalating tensions and revolutionary fervor. The marquis is driven by a blend of paternal affection and a sense of duty, eager to reunite with his children. However, as they arrive, the chaos of the revolution becomes apparent with the sound of gunfire and the sight of conflict, leading to a deep emotional conflict that will resonate throughout the story, setting a tragic tone for the unfolding drama of loyalty, duty, and loss.
