Description
Virginius is a play written by James Sheridan Knowles in 1882. The play is set in ancient Rome and tells the story of Virginius, a Roman soldier, and his daughter Virginia. Virginia is a beautiful and virtuous young woman who is engaged to Icilius, a young Roman nobleman. However, their happiness is threatened when Appius Claudius, a corrupt and powerful Roman judge, becomes obsessed with Virginia and tries to claim her as his own. When Virginius learns of Appius' plan, he is forced to take drastic action to protect his daughter's honor and freedom. The play is a powerful exploration of justice, honor, and the lengths that a father will go to protect his child. It is a classic example of Victorian drama, with its emphasis on morality and the struggle between good and evil. Overall, Virginius is a gripping and emotional play that continues to be performed and studied today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
