Foscari And Julian - Mary Russell Mitford

Foscari and Julian: Tragedies is a book written by Mary Russell Mitford and published in 1827. The book is a collection of two tragedies, Foscari and Julian, both of which are set in Italy during the Renaissance. Foscari tells the story of Francesco Foscari, the Doge of Venice, who is forced to choose between his duty to the state and his love for his son. Julian, on the other hand, is a story of a young man who is consumed by ambition and becomes embroiled in a plot to overthrow the ruler of his city. Both tragedies explore themes of power, loyalty, and betrayal, and are written in a style that is both poetic and dramatic. Mitford's writing is known for its vivid descriptions of Italian life and culture, and Foscari and Julian are no exception. The book is a must-read for anyone interested in Italian history, literature, or drama.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
