The Tragedy of Tragedies or The Life and Death of Tom Thumb the Great is a satirical play written by Henry Fielding. The play is a parody of the popular tragic plays of the time and tells the story of Tom Thumb, a tiny man who becomes a hero and ultimately meets his demise. The play is set in the court of King Arthur and features a cast of characters that includes Queen Dollalolla, King Arthur, and Grizzle, Tom Thumb's love interest. The play is known for its use of absurdity, parody, and satire to poke fun at the conventions of tragic plays. The Tragedy of Tragedies or The Life and Death of Tom Thumb the Great is considered one of Fielding's most important works and a classic of English literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
