Hoffmann: Or A Revenge For A Father, A Tragedy is a play written by Henry Chettle and first published in 1852. The play is set in Germany and follows the story of Hoffmann, a young man seeking revenge for the murder of his father. Hoffmann's father was a wealthy merchant who was killed by a rival merchant, and Hoffmann sets out to avenge his father's death. Along the way, he falls in love with a woman named Julia, who is the daughter of his father's murderer. As Hoffmann's plan for revenge unfolds, he must navigate the complex relationships between himself, Julia, and her father. The play explores themes of revenge, love, and justice, and is a classic example of 19th-century melodrama. Chettle's writing is characterized by its vivid descriptions, dramatic dialogue, and intense emotional scenes. Hoffmann: Or A Revenge For A Father, A Tragedy is a gripping and thought-provoking play that has stood the test of time.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
