Under The Hill: Or The Story Of Venus And Tannhauser is a book by Audrey Beardsley that tells the story of Tannhauser, a knight who is seduced by the goddess Venus and taken to her underground palace. Tannhauser becomes trapped in Venus' world and forgets about his former life, but eventually longs to return to the world above. He is eventually released from Venus' spell and returns to the human world, but is shunned by society for his association with the goddess. The book explores themes of desire, temptation, and the consequences of giving into one's desires. It is a re-telling of a medieval German legend, and features Beardsley's unique artistic style.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
