Delicate Ground or Paris in 1793 is a one-act comic drama written by Charles Dance and published in 1855. The play is set during the French Revolution in Paris, a time of great political upheaval and social unrest. The story follows the character of Monsieur Dubois, a wealthy merchant who is caught up in the chaos of the revolution. Dubois is forced to navigate the delicate political landscape of the time, as he tries to protect his business and his family from the violence and instability of the city. Along the way, he encounters a cast of colorful characters, including a group of revolutionaries, a young aristocrat, and a beautiful young woman who captures his heart. The play is filled with humor, satire, and social commentary, as Dance uses the story to explore the complex political and social issues of the time. Delicate Ground or Paris in 1793 is a fascinating glimpse into a pivotal moment in history, and a compelling drama that still resonates with audiences today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
