The Heart and the World is a play in five acts, written by John Westland Marston and first published in 1847. The play explores themes of love, betrayal, and redemption, and centers around the character of Sir Edward Mortimer, a wealthy and powerful man who is torn between his love for his wife, Lady Edith, and his desire for the beautiful and alluring Lady Isabel. As the play unfolds, Sir Edward's relationships with both women become increasingly complicated, and he is forced to confront the consequences of his actions and the true nature of his own heart. Along the way, the play also touches on issues of class, gender, and power dynamics, and offers a nuanced and complex portrayal of human relationships and emotions. With its richly drawn characters, intricate plot, and powerful themes, The Heart and the World remains a compelling and thought-provoking work of drama that continues to captivate readers and audiences alike.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
