Summary "The New Abelard: A Romance, Volume 3 (of 3)" by Robert Williams Buchanan is a novel written in the late 19th century. This work focuses on the struggles of its protagonist, Alma Craik, as she navigates a tumultuous emotional landscape filled with misunderstanding and moral dilemmas related to love and faith. At the start of the novel, we encounter a correspondence between Sir George Craik and his niece, Alma, revealing her recent experience of emotional turmoil and her desire for solitude following a painful misunderstanding with a man named Ambrose Bradley. The narrative develops through Alma's letters, showcasing her travels across Europe as she grapples with her inner anguish and seeks solace in religion amidst her sorrows. Simultaneously, Ambrose, plagued by guilt and moral conflicts, contemplates his own failings and expresses grave concerns over Alma’s wellbeing, foreshadowing a deeper connection between their fateful choices. The opening chapters set the tone for a complex interplay of character relationships, inner struggles, and philosophical inquiries into faith and redemption.
