Quentin Durward Summary

Quentin Durward was composed in a remarkably short space of time. After carrying out some preparatory research towards the end of 1822 Scott began writing in January 1823 and supplied the finishing sentences in response to a request from his coadjutor James Ballantyne on 3 May. His principal source was the Mémoires of Philippe de Comines, but as usual, he adapts historical facts freely in the construction of his fiction: most notably the murder of the Bishop of Liège occurs 14 years before its historical date, and Orleans and his future wife Joan appear as adults rather than young children. He was also inspired by manuscript material deriving from continental journeys by his friend James Skene of Rubislaw.
