Erinna: A Tragedy is a play written by John Gurdon and published in 1903. The play is set in ancient Greece and tells the story of Erinna, a young woman who is in love with her childhood friend, Phaon. However, Phaon is in love with another woman, and Erinna is consumed by jealousy and despair. As the play progresses, Erinna's mental state deteriorates, and she becomes increasingly unstable. Eventually, Erinna takes her own life, unable to bear the pain of unrequited love. The play explores themes of love, jealousy, and mental illness, and is a poignant portrayal of the human condition. Gurdon's writing is evocative and poetic, and the play is a powerful reminder of the enduring nature of tragedy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
