Coles Elfrida, A Dramatic Poem: Written On The Model Of The Ancient Greek Tragedy (1752) at Bayshore Shopping Centre in Ottawa, ON
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
Elfrida is a dramatic poem written by William Mason in 1752. It is written in the style of ancient Greek tragedy and tells the story of Elfrida, a Saxon princess who becomes queen of England after the death of her husband, King Edgar. However, her reign is short-lived as she is eventually overthrown by her stepson, Ethelwold, who has fallen in love with her. The play explores themes of power, love, and betrayal, and features a cast of characters including Elfrida, Ethelwold, Edgar, and Dunstan, the Archbishop of Canterbury. Mason's use of poetic language and dramatic tension creates a compelling and emotional story that draws on the traditions of Greek tragedy while also reflecting the concerns of 18th century England.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
