Description
Gorboduc, Or Ferrex And Porrex: A Tragedy (1883) is a play written by Thomas Norton, a 16th-century English lawyer and playwright. The play is based on the legend of King Gorboduc, who ruled ancient Britain with his two sons, Ferrex and Porrex. The play follows the power struggle between the two brothers, which ultimately leads to the downfall of the kingdom.The play is written in blank verse and is considered one of the earliest examples of English tragedy. It explores themes of power, ambition, and the consequences of unchecked desire. The characters are complex and well-developed, with each one representing a different aspect of human nature.The play was first performed in 1561 and was well-received by audiences at the time. It has since been studied and analyzed by scholars and is considered an important work in the history of English literature. This edition of the play, published in 1883, includes a preface and notes by the editor, providing context and analysis of the play's themes and historical significance.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
