Mustapha: A Tragedy is a play written by Cornelius Neale and published in 1814. The play is set in Constantinople and tells the story of Mustapha, the son of the Ottoman Emperor, who is imprisoned for conspiring against his father. Mustapha's wife, Zaphira, tries to rescue him but is ultimately unsuccessful. The play explores themes of love, loyalty, and betrayal, and is considered a classic example of Romantic-era drama. The characters are complex and multi-dimensional, with Mustapha struggling between his desire for freedom and his duty to his father, and Zaphira torn between her love for Mustapha and her loyalty to the Emperor. The play is written in blank verse and features vivid descriptions of the exotic setting of Constantinople. Mustapha: A Tragedy is a compelling and thought-provoking 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.
