Admetus: A Thessalian Fantasy is a dramatic play written by Irving E. Outcalt. The story is set in ancient Thessaly, Greece, and revolves around the tragic love story of Admetus and Alcestis. Admetus, a young prince, is in love with Alcestis, a beautiful princess, but their love is forbidden by her father, King Pelias. Despite the obstacles, Admetus and Alcestis decide to elope and start a new life together. However, their happiness is short-lived as they soon discover that the gods are angry with them for defying the king's will. To appease the gods, Admetus must sacrifice someone he loves dearly, and he chooses Alcestis. The play follows the couple's struggle to come to terms with their fate and the consequences of their actions. The story is filled with drama, tragedy, and romance, and explores themes of love, sacrifice, and the power of the gods.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
