Constantine: A Tragedy is a play written by Philip Francis in 1754. The play is set in the 4th century AD and centers around the story of the Roman Emperor Constantine the Great. The play begins with Constantine's rise to power and his conversion to Christianity. However, his newfound faith puts him at odds with his pagan subjects, including his own mother. The play explores the themes of religious conflict, political power, and personal sacrifice. The character of Constantine is portrayed as a tragic hero who is torn between his duty to his people and his religious convictions. The play is written in blank verse and features a cast of historical figures such as Constantine's mother, Helena, and his rival, Maxentius. Overall, Constantine: A Tragedy is a compelling work of historical drama that offers insight into the politics and religion of the Roman Empire.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
