Belisarius: A Tragedy, In Five Acts is a play written by William Richard Scott and first published in 1846. The play is based on the life of the Byzantine general Belisarius, who served under the Emperor Justinian I in the 6th century. The play is set in the time of the Byzantine Empire and follows the story of Belisarius, a great and loyal general who is betrayed by his emperor and left to suffer in poverty and blindness. The play explores themes of loyalty, betrayal, and the corrupting influence of power. It is written in five acts and features a cast of characters including Belisarius, his wife Antonina, Emperor Justinian I, and his wife Empress Theodora. The play is considered a classic of its genre and has been performed numerous times throughout history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
