Ritari d'Harmental is a historical novel by Alexandre Dumas, first published in 1844, set in early 18th-century France during the Regency period (1715-1723). The story follows the adventures of chevalier Raoul d'Harmental, who becomes embroiled in political intrigue and personal conflict as he navigates love and duels. Notable for its exploration of aristocratic life and the complexities of honor and romance, the novel also touches on the Cellamare Conspiracy of 1718, reflecting the tensions of the time under the regency of Philippe, duc d'Orléans.
