The Roman Maid: A Tragedy, written by Robert Hurst and published in 1725, is a play set in ancient Rome. The story revolves around the character of Lucilla, a Roman maid who falls in love with a young man named Marcus. However, their love is forbidden as Marcus is a nobleman and Lucilla is a servant. The play explores the themes of love, class conflict, and societal norms in ancient Rome. As the plot unfolds, Lucilla's love for Marcus becomes the catalyst for a series of tragic events that ultimately lead to her downfall. The Roman Maid: A Tragedy is a classic example of 18th-century English drama and is known for its vivid portrayal of ancient Roman society and its characters.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
