| Summary | "Cœur de panthère" by Gustave Aimard and J. Berlioz d'Auriac is a novel written in the mid-19th century. The story is set against the backdrop of the American West, particularly in the region of Fort Laramie, Nebraska, during a tumultuous period of conflict between settlers and indigenous peoples. At its heart is the character Manonie, also known as Coeur-de-Panthère, a young woman of mixed heritage who navigates her identity between the white settlers and the Native American tribes. The opening of the novel introduces us to the exquisite and rugged landscape surrounding Fort Laramie, highlighting both its natural beauty and the tension of frontier life. We learn about Manonie's backstory, including her abduction from her family at a young age and her upbringing among the Pawnee tribe, where she earned the name Coeur-de-Panthère due to her fierce and untamable spirit. As she becomes entwined in the lives of the fort's soldiers, particularly Lieutenant Henry Marshall, the plot thickens with rising tensions from Wontum, a Pawnee warrior harboring a vendetta against the settlers. The stage is set for a tale of bravery, love, and the struggle for identity in a land fraught with danger and conflict. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
