The King's Jewry is a play written by Halcott Glover and originally published in 1921. The play is set in medieval England and follows the story of a young Jewish woman named Rachel who is forced to flee her home after being accused of a crime she did not commit. She seeks refuge in the court of King Henry III, where she becomes embroiled in a complex web of political intrigue and religious conflict.As Rachel navigates the dangerous world of the king's court, she must also confront her own identity as a Jew in a society that sees her as an outsider. Along the way, she forms relationships with various characters, including the king himself, his queen, and a group of Christian knights who are sympathetic to her plight.The play explores themes of prejudice, power, and identity, and offers a nuanced portrayal of the tensions between Jews and Christians in medieval England. It is a thought-provoking work that challenges readers to consider the ways in which historical injustices continue to impact our world today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
