Matthew Arnold's Sohrab and Rustum is a narrative poem that tells the story of two great warriors, Sohrab and Rustum, who are father and son but do not know it. The poem is set in ancient Persia and explores themes of identity, fate, and the tragedy of war. Sohrab, a young and skilled warrior, is sent by his mother to find his father, Rustum, whom she has never told him about. Rustum, who is also a great warrior, is unaware of his son's existence and mistakes him for an enemy on the battlefield. The two engage in a fierce battle, and Sohrab is eventually killed by his own father. The poem is a powerful exploration of the complexities of human relationships and the tragic consequences of war. It is considered one of Arnold's most significant works and a masterpiece of Victorian literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
