Edury and Elgiva: A Tragedy is a play written by Thomas Tilston and published in 1865. The story is set in medieval England and revolves around the tragic love affair between Edury, a nobleman, and Elgiva, a beautiful and virtuous young woman. Despite their deep feelings for each other, their love is forbidden by the societal norms of the time, as Edury is already betrothed to another woman. The play explores themes of love, duty, and honor, as well as the devastating consequences of societal expectations and the struggle to follow one's heart. The play is written in five acts and features a cast of memorable characters, including the scheming Lady Edith, the wise and loyal Earl of Mercia, and the conflicted King Ethelred. Tilston's masterful storytelling and poetic language make Edury and Elgiva: A Tragedy a timeless 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.
