The Roman Father: A Tragedy is a play written by William Whitehead and first performed in 1750. The play is set in ancient Rome and tells the story of Marcus, a Roman father who is faced with a difficult decision when his daughter, Lucia, is accused of a crime. Despite his love for his daughter, Marcus must decide whether to uphold the law and have her punished or to protect her at all costs. The play explores themes of loyalty, family, and justice, and features a cast of characters including senators, soldiers, and priests. The Roman Father was well-received by audiences and is considered one of Whitehead's most successful works.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
