Genevieve of Brabant: A Legend in Verse by Mrs. Charles Willing is a poetic retelling of the medieval legend of Genevieve, a noblewoman who is falsely accused of infidelity by her husband, the Duke of Brabant. The story follows Genevieve as she is banished to the forest with her infant son and must survive in the wilderness while being hunted by her husband's men. Along the way, she is aided by various animals and a group of friendly peasants. Eventually, she is able to clear her name and reunite with her husband. The poem is written in a traditional ballad style and includes elements of romance, adventure, and suspense. It offers a glimpse into medieval European culture and the role of women in society during that time period.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
