The Pledge Or Castilian Honor: A Tragic Drama In Five Acts is a play written by James Kenney and first published in 1831. The play follows the story of Don Garcia, a nobleman in 16th century Spain who is forced to make a difficult choice between his honor and his love for a woman named Leonora. Don Garcia's friend, Don Manuel, has made a pledge to marry Leonora, but Don Garcia also falls in love with her. When Don Manuel is killed in a duel, Don Garcia feels obligated to fulfill his friend's pledge and marry Leonora, even though it means sacrificing his own happiness. The play explores themes of honor, duty, and sacrifice, and is considered a classic example of 19th century melodrama.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
