Tamerlane: A Tragedy is a play written by Nicholas Rowe and first published in 1703. The play is based on the historical figure of Tamerlane, the 14th-century conqueror of Central Asia, and his love for the captive queen of the defeated Ottoman Empire, Bajazet. The play is set in the aftermath of Tamerlane's victory over Bajazet, and explores themes of power, love, and revenge. The play is written in five acts and features a cast of characters that includes Tamerlane, Bajazet, and various courtiers and soldiers. Tamerlane: A Tragedy is considered one of Rowe's most important works and is often cited as an example of early 18th-century English tragedy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
