Edward And Eleonora: A Tragedy is a play written by James Thomson in 1739. The story revolves around the ill-fated love affair between Edward, the Prince of Wales, and Eleonora, a beautiful and virtuous princess. Despite their love for one another, their relationship is opposed by the King and Queen, who have arranged for Edward to marry another woman for political reasons. The play explores the themes of love, duty, and betrayal, as well as the consequences of defying authority. The tragic ending of the play serves as a warning against the dangers of pursuing forbidden love, and the importance of fulfilling one's obligations to society. Through the use of poetic language and dramatic tension, Thomson creates a powerful and emotional story that captures the essence of tragic romance.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
