The Trumpet-Major is a novel by Thomas Hardy published in 1880, and his only historical novel, and Hardy included it with his "romances and fantasies". It concerns the heroine, Anne Garland, being pursued by three suitors: John Loveday, the eponymous trumpet major in a British regiment, honest and loyal; his brother Bob, a flighty sailor; and Festus Derriman, the cowardly nephew of the local squire. Unusually for a Hardy novel, the ending is not entirely tragic; however, there remains an ominous element in the probable fate of one of the main characters.

  • The Trumpet-Major is een roman uit 1880 van de Engelse schrijver Thomas Hardy. Het verhaal werd voor het eerst gepubliceerd in het tijdschrift tussen januari en december 1880. De geschiedenis speelt zich af tegen de achtergrond van de napoleontische oorlogen, waarnaar Hardy grondig onderzoek had gedaan. Zoals vaker voorkwam, bewerkte hij het verhaal op sommige punten voor de publicatie in feuilletonvorm. In oktober 1880 kwam het in boekvorm uit in drie delen. Het verhaal is luchthartig van toon, maar niet vrij van Hardy's karakteristieke ironie. (nl)
  • The Tumpet-Major es una novela escrita por Thomas Hardy, publicada en 1880. La heroína de la historia, Ann Garland, tiene tres pretendientes: John Loveday, trompetista en un regimiento británico, quien era honesto y leal; su hermano Bob, un mujeriego marino mercante, y Festus Derriman, el cobarde hijo del escudero local. Una característica particular de The Tumpet-Major, poco usual en las novelas de Hardy, es que la mayor parte de los personajes vivieron felices después del desenlace de la historia. (es)
