What is Der Traum von Arden. ( Ab 10 J.). about?

Harding’s Luck , published in 1909, is the sequel to (https://standardebooks.org/ebooks/e-nesbit/the-house-of-arden) The House of Arden by (https://standardebooks.org/ebooks/e-nesbit) E. Nesbit . Rather darker and more serious in tone than the previous book, this novel is set in England’s Edwardian era, when there was no government-supported welfare and the poor still sometimes starved to death. It centers on young Dickie Harding, a poor, lame orphan boy who is enticed to run away with a disreputable tramp, Mr. Beale. Beale intends to use him to help carry out burglaries (a plot device not dissimilar to that of (https://standardebooks.org/ebooks/charles-dickens/oliver-twist) Oliver Twist ) . Nevertheless Beale becomes a substitute father-figure to Dickie and a strong mutual affection develops. The story then introduces a magical device which sends Dickie back in time to the early reign of King James I, where he inhabits the body of the son of the lord of a castle. Despite this new, very comfortable existence, where he is a member of a rich, respected family and no longer lame, Dickie selflessly forces himself to return to his present day because of a promise he had made to Beal
