"The Legend of Ulenspiegel, Volume 2 (of 2)" by Charles de Coster is a novel published in 1867. This Belgian masterwork transforms the medieval German trickster Till Eulenspiegel into Thyl Ulenspiegel, a Flemish folk hero fighting Spanish oppression during the Dutch Revolt.

Accompanied by his sweetheart Nele and companion Lamme Goedzak, he undertakes dangerous missions while his homeland burns with rebellion and religious persecution.
