The Fatal Constancy: A Tragedy is a play written by Jacob Hildebrand and first published in 1723. The play tells the story of a young couple, Alphonso and Isabella, who are deeply in love but face numerous obstacles in their pursuit of happiness. Alphonso's father, the Duke of Milan, disapproves of their relationship and wants his son to marry someone of noble birth. Isabella's father, on the other hand, is a poor merchant who cannot offer a suitable dowry for his daughter. Despite these challenges, Alphonso and Isabella remain committed to each other and refuse to give up on their love.As the play unfolds, the characters are faced with a series of tragic events that test their loyalty and devotion to one another. Isabella is falsely accused of infidelity and is banished from Milan, while Alphonso is forced to marry another woman against his will. In the end, both Alphonso and Isabella die tragically, unable to overcome the societal pressures and expectations that have torn them apart.The Fatal Constancy is a classic example of a tragic play, exploring themes of love, loyalty, and the constraints of society. It is a powerful and emotional work that continues to be studied and performed today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
