The Battle of Alcazar, 1597 is a play written by George Peele. It is a historical drama based on the Battle of Alcazar, which took place in 1578 between the forces of King Sebastian of Portugal and the Moroccan Sultan Abd al-Malik. The play explores themes of power, loyalty, and betrayal, as well as the clash of cultures between the Christian and Muslim worlds. The main characters include King Sebastian, his loyal friend Antonio, the treacherous Duke of Alba, and the Moroccan leaders Abd al-Malik and Muly Mahamet. The play features dramatic battle scenes, political intrigue, and tragic twists of fate. It is considered one of Peele's most ambitious works and a notable example of Elizabethan drama.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
